She graduated from Box Elder High School.
She married Wendell Saunders on March 13, 1950 in the Logan Temple. They lived in Brigham City for a number of years, and all four of their children were born there; Wendell Jr., Suzanne "Suzy", Wendy Jane and Jonathan "Jon". They were later divorced.

LaRae was employed at Hill Air Force Base as a Material Specialist for 20 years, earning various awards for her work ethic and skills.
After retirement she spent her time gardening, reading and crafting, and loved to glue glitter on anything that would hold still.

She was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and faithfully fulfilled the many callings extended to her.
