In 1936 she married John Walsh and in 1943 they moved to Charleston, SC with their three children. She began working at MUSC as a nurse's aide for a number of years. It was during this time she began attending the Star Gospel Mission and became a Christian. Soon after, she joined in membership at Ferndale Baptist Church (now called Foster Creek Baptist Church). She began singing at an early age and continued singing as long as she was able. Her greatest joy was to witness to the unsaved and give out gospel tracks. She and Mr. Walsh became Custodians of Ferndale Baptist Church and School from 1969 to 2007 (Mr. Walsh passed away in 1990). She continued to work until she retired.
