She was employed at the Mustang (HUB) in Manila for nearly seventeen years. In the off season she worked as a flagger on road construction but enjoyed most of all working for UDOT. She found great joy in being outdoors, especially fishing, rock hunting, and camping. Most of all she loved being with family. Her love of animals was abundant, she took in every stray cat or dog and gave them a loving home. She was generous to everyone she knew, always lived a simple life and was content to do so.
