After the war the couple lived and raised three sons at their home at Four Corners near Maple Valley. In 1961 they moved to a home on Lake Sawyer where she spent the next 50 years of her life. During that time the couple toured the world and spent most winters at their condominium on Maui. She most enjoyed time spent at their Mats Mats Bay farm on the Olympic Peninsula.
