After her children were raised, she returned to school and earned a Master of Science in Social Administration degree in 1986 from the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western Reserve University. She worked as a clinical social worker for a number of years. She had a tremendous intellectual curiosity and loved to study the work of Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell among many others. She was also a great lover of reading and writing poetry. She was remarkably skillful at decorating her home, knitting and gardening. She drew great pleasure from celebrating her family and friends on their birthdays and loved everything about celebrating Christmas. She was a kind, gentle and genuine person who loved all people for exactly who they are. She will be greatly missed by those who knew her. She was a lifelong Episcopalian and for a time served as the Senior Warden of the Church of Our Savior in Salem, where a memorial service will be held on Saturday, April 20, 2019 at 2:00 p.m., 870 East State Street, Salem.
