Early in her life she was a rodeo queen. She was a great care giver, caring for her parents, mother-in-law, aunts and uncles when they were ill. She was a homemaker all of her married life, serving family and those around her. Some of her hobbies included making and decorating cakes, making candy and bowling, having joined bowling leagues and winning many trophies. She enjoyed being in the mountains with the family. She really enjoyed entertaining friends and family and hosting Andersen family reunions at the cabin up Blacksmith Fork Canyon. She especially enjoyed the fall season and decorating for Christmas. Traveling also was a joy to her.
