At the time of her death she was a member of the Sunnyside congregation of the conservative Mennonite Church. She enjoyed teaching Sunday School and Bible school classes and helping in the women's sewing and relief activities as long as her health allowed. During the last six years of her life, her participation was limited because she was confined to her bed or wheelchair.
