On June 11, 1988, she was united in marriage to Joe Brown in Littleton. He was the love of her life, always standing by her side. Not only was he her husband, but he was also her best friend. They moved to Marble in 2004, enjoying the small town lifestyle where they continued to live out their dreams and twenty-six years of marriage.

The other was to go Whitewater rafting, which she did in the summer of 2012 with her close friends and family. She was a gentle, kind-hearted woman, always caring for others without thinking twice.
