Her family was one of the pioneer families that settled in Marion County in 1847 while the Indians were still active in the area. The family has always been politically active since her Grandfather was a coauthor of the State of Florida's Constitution. Her immediate family lived most of her life on that original land grant on the shores of North Lake Bryant on the western edge of the Ocala National Forest.
She graduated from East Marion High School at Lynne, Fla. before going to Florida State College for Women (now F.S.U.) where she graduated with a degree in Home Economics. During her first post graduate year she taught Home Economics and coached the girls athletics at Reddick, The following year she went with the U.S. Dept of Agriculture in teaching food preparation and canning along with other household talents including general health guidelines to the farm women in Pasco County near Lakeland. After moving to Atlanta in 1939 she was dietician at Georgia Tech, Emory Hospital and Georgia Baptist Hospitals.

During this time the integration of the church brought on very strong opinions by the various groups of the women and it became a serious problem, therefore she felt it her duty to stay home and try to bring harmony the group. She canceled going on the trip for she felt her duty to the Church took precedent over the pleasure of the trip to Paris. Unfortunately that plane crashed on take off from Orly Airdrome killing everyone aboard. She has been active with the American Cancer Society through the years and especially when Dr.
