She gave birth to their seventh child after Merle had set up his dental practice and the family had moved to Orinda. Here also, she was able to develop her passion for gardening and ikebana and enjoyed her involvement in The Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. On one bank of the yard she created a lovely succulent garden which also features a stunning collection of colorful rocks she had gathered over the years from annual trips back to Utah. Though she tremendously enjoyed accompanying her husband on extended work trips to Israel, Yugoslavia and Japan, and relished their excursions to Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden and the Caribbean, she seemed happiest to be visiting family in the many locations they now call home. And it was her dream to retire with Merle in Southern Utah.
