She was married to George Ardelean the love of her life who passed in 2002, her partner of 18 years Robert Herrman who passed in 2021

She was a 1964 New Kensington High School graduate and worked in the medical field for 45 years, where she was cherished by her patients and coworkers. She loved fiercely and no one who had ever met her could say a bad word about her or couldn't help but love her deeply! She lived out the rest of her life loving on her babies in North Carolina.

She always enjoyed the word to this song. "You are my sunshine, My only sunshine, You make me happy, When skies are gray, You'll never know, dear, How much I love you, Please don't take my sunshine away."
