She lived a full and rich life, where art, particularly sculpture, was important. She holds a Masters Degree in Fine Art from the University of Michigan, and her greatest joy was creating beautiful works of art for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, of which she was a member.

Her paintings include Elijah Visiting Joseph Smith and Christ Ministering to the Children in the Americas. She served as a Relief Society President and as a counselor in a Stake Relief Society Presidency.

She was a temple worker in the Oakland Temple for fourteen years and also worked in the Primary and Young Women's organizations.

She is survived by two daughters, Shari (David) Pack and Gayle (Bill) Madsen, and one son, Greg Evans, as well as twenty-one grandchildren and thirty-eight great-grandchildren.
