As a mother of young children, she attended every game they played in and was a co-founder of the North Smithfield Little League Womens Auxiliary to help support the league in fundraising at Pacheco Park.

She was especially proud of her travel to California when she was able to meet with President Ronald Reagan along with her two sisters and cherished those pictures and shared with her family.
