In her later years she became quite involved with farming and the stock market, citing her knowledge learned from Riddle. She loved to play bridge and was in the same bridge club for over 60 years.
The loves of her life were her children and then, her grandchildren. She took great pride in their accomplishments in life and her unwavering support of them was never ending.
