Her faith was also important to her. She was a member of St. Luke Altar Society in Flint, and later taught in the Religious Education Program at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Fenton. She enjoyed the many friendships formed as a member of Sigma Phi Gamma Sorority and the Lake Fenton Athletic Booster.
