A naturally gifted artist and musician, she often hand tinted black and white photos in the early days, and continued to draw and sketch for much of her life. She enjoyed cooking, bowling, playing cards, and attending musical productions very much. She loved to play the piano and sing, and was a member of the Sweet Adelines female chorale group for several years. Later in life she enjoyed the peaceful solitude of Houghton Lake and loved planting flowers and gardening.
