She was born in Hannibal, Missouri and raised in Chicago, but lived for 52 years in Wildwood, Illinois, where she and her husband Lou raised 12 children and two grandchildren. In the 1980s she began to make occasional journal entries that combined her personal recollections with a diary of her everyday life.
