She moved to San Diego, Calif., in 1940. Her work experience included jobs with Standard Parachute Factory, Consolidated Vultee Aircraft Company and the San Diego Baseball Club. In 1958, she joined the staff of the San Diego Unified School District where she held the position as a junior college bookstore manager and later a high school financial secretary.

She was united in marriage with Raymond Camp in 1942 in La Jolla, Calif., and they became the parents of two children, son Lawrence and daughter Linda. They lived in Lakeside, Calif., for many years before moving to Naples, Idaho, in 1977 and later to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, in 1988. She moved to Colorado, California and Texas before returning to North Idaho in 2014. Since then she lived in Post Falls, Idaho.
