She married the love of her life, Fred Peacock on April 23rd, 1963 in Las Vegas. Together they enjoyed four decades of happy marriage until her husband’s passing. They brought two children into the world, Scott and Luke Peacock.

As a retiree, she volunteered at a hospital gift shop and the local library. Across her time in California and Utah, she served on multiple church and school boards and continued that service until the end. As her family grew she welcomed her grandchildren with love and adoration. She always had encouraging words and a warm hug to give.
