She was baptized and confirmed at the Methodist Church in Sumner. Fannie graduated from Sumner High School in 1940. Following her graduation, she worked at the Sumner Theater for a couple years.

To this union six daughters were born, Judy, Jane, Julie, Jackie, Joyce, and Janet. The couple farmed together from 1942 until 1991.
