Ardithe graduated from Logan-Magnolia High School in 1947. On January 1, 1950 she married the love of her life, Everett "Boz" Leroy Bosworth of Logan, Iowa. Together they had 2 daughters, Kathryn Lynn & Rebecca Sue and 1 son, Tedd Arthur. While raising her family, Ardithe worked at Lenihan's Pharmacy, now known as Eby Drug and Harvey's Clothing Store as a clerk. Ardithe and Boz loved to camp and traveled to many places with their children and their travels continued after their children were grown. She would just glow when sharing stories & memories of all the places that they traveled. Ardithe enjoyed gardening and tinkering with her flowers and plants, she had so many it would take over an hour to water them all while they were gone on vacation. Ardithe also loved to watch Iowa Hawkeyes, especially because her brother played football for them. Ardithe love to crochet & crocheted baby blankets for her grandchildren when they were born & made afghans for them when they were older. She also enjoyed playing cards with her friends & was in a card club with her friends for many years. They would all take turns hosting at their homes. Ardithe and Boz were wonderful parents & very active in their lives. They also enjoyed spending time with their Grandchildren & Great Grandchildren. They were probably the best grandparents any grandchild could ask for. They all have wonderful memories of all the 4th of July celebrations, roasting marshmallows in their fireplace, playing in their fishpond, getting in to the cupboard that was always stashed with candy & gum & cutting wood with them during the winter months & then coming in for a cup of hot chocolate & buttered toast. But their best memories are when they would come to all their sporting events, concerts, school plays, dance, baptisms, graduations & weddings. They were always there and missed very few! After Ardithe's children left home, she took up oil painting. She loved painting outdoor scenery and gave them away as gifts & they hang in our homes today as memories of her wonderful talent. Ardithe had many dogs & cats over the years, but her favorite had to be "Mini Muffin", she pouted for several days until Boz finally gave in and said that she could keep her, after he said, "No more pets" after the last one had passed. Ardithe loved to read, especially Harlequin romance novels & she was a wonderful cook too! She had some specialties that we all looked forward to, like her suet pudding, red devil cake, cherry dessert & homemade chicken & noodles. Ardithe was a devout Lutheran & was a member of the Immanuel Lutheran church in Logan, Iowa her entire life. She was very active in the church and taught Sunday school & catechism for many years.
