She attended both grade school and high school in Jasper and graduated in 1941. While in Jasper she worked at Sack's Grocery Store and later as a clerk at Shriver's in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. While employed at First National Bank in Pipestone, she met Donald Moffitt, a returning WWII Veteran. On October 6, 1946, they were united in marriage at the parsonage of the First Presbyterian Church of Holland, Minnesota. They lived in the same house in Holland for 64 years and raised three sons.
