Mom was a homemaker, taking care of seven children in her early years. She later was employed by the Somerset County Public School System where she worked for 36 years at Deal Island School. Mom was loved by all who knew her and was affectionately known by all the children there as "Grandma".
Mom's greatest pleasure was traveling with the Benton Family singing gospel music all around the Eastern Shore. Mom was a member of Faith Independent Church in Wenona.
