She was also a member of the First United Methodist Church in Centerville, where she was involved in Church activities. She was very active in the Order of Eastern Star, and in 2007, she became the Worthy Grand Matron for the State of Iowa. She also volunteered for PEO, TTT, The Lords Cupboard and the Hospital Auxillary. She enjoyed being in the Centerville High School Booster Club, and following her boys sporting events and activities throughout school.
