Mike brought with him into the marriage four children. Candy had one son that Mike adopted and raised as his own.

They had three girls together. She was so supportive of Mike and his Career as a Snap-on man. They loved to set and achieve goals together, go to Disneyland, to travel and cruise. Lake Powell was their summer home. They loved to be on the water.

Candy loved her family and moved her parents and an aunt into her home. She welcomed several bonus Daughters in the form of Exchange students, and was an epic Dance mom. She loved a full and loud house.

She raised champion poodles, something she was very proud of. She loved her bowling team, to shop and decorate. She went all out for all Holidays, but Christmas was her favorite.

After raising her children she opened her own gift and home decor shop. Then moved to Huntington Beach to manage a mobile home park and be closer to her brother Lou. She made her dream of working at Disneyland come true and of course worked in the stores, with her favorite days spent working at Small World and Bippiti Bobbidi Boutique.
