In 1968, she began a second career as a legal secretary, working at the law firm of Vrana & Gless and its successor firms, including the Law Offices of Leo Eske, until her retirement. Afterwards, Maddie did volunteer work, including at St. Patrick's Church and the Red Cross Blood Mobile. Maddie is survived by her son, George Petrow (wife Cynthia) of London, England, granddaughters, Lucy, Eleni and Madeline, and Beverly Rosenbaum of Fremont, whom she came to think of as a daughter.
