Later she engaged in the dressmaking business, which she followed for many years. She also served as assistant postmaster for ten years. After leaving the post office she was bookkeeper for Jodar & Hein for a short time, finally retiring from a business line to take care of her aged mother, who at that time was not in the best of health.
