Monica was born to Fred and Shirley Hudson in Lander, WY on October 5, 1947. Her family moved to Casper when Monica was six where she lived until her passing.

They made their first home in Sheridan, WY, moving back to Casper in 1968. Their daughter Damara Rae was born in 1969 and Monica cared for and loved other children to be able to stay home with Rae.

Monica had a very long and extremely varied career journey. She loved doing new things and meeting new people. Her favorite and proudest was as a realtor for 25 plus years for equity brokers. She helped write a contract and sell a piece of property just a couple of months before her death.
