She worked for a railroad, as a door-to-door salesperson getting people to join a bowling league, as a key punch operator, as a Supervisor at Bellsouth and ultimately retired from the Registrar’s office at Broward Community College. Throughout her life she gathered friends and maintained life-long friendships. She is survived by cousins, nieces, and nephews.
