As with all mom’s and grandmom’s her family meant everything to her, she was especially proud when the 5th generation was born.
Retired from DuPont in 1974 after 27 years of service. A self-taught seamstress she made clothes for her children and slacks & blouses for many of the ladies she worked with at DuPont. She took up quilting later in life following in the footsteps of her ancestors.
