She met her handsome husband of 60 years, Patrick, on New Year's Eve 1950 and they were married less than two months later. Twila spent her married life as a homemaker. She enjoyed bowling, gardening, and baking (awesome pies). Taking care of her family, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren was what gave her the most joy.
