She fully retired in 2004 and moved to Florida with her husband. She greatly enjoyed golfing with the girls and playing card games, especially Mah Jongg.

She is survived and will always be loved and remembered by her husband, Doug; and two children, her daughter Deneen of Florida, and her son Dean and his wife, Kathy, of Virginia; as well as three grandchildren, Nick and his wife, Savannah, of Arkansas, and Jessica and Joshua of Virginia.

She is survived by one sister, Margaret, and one brother, Harry, both of Pennsylvania; along with several nieces and nephews.
