On November 24, 1951, she married Conrad Koch and moved to the Koch farm just west of Edenwold. She lived there until her passing. During her years on the farm, she was very active in all aspects of the farming operation. Her passions were vegetable gardening, perennial gardens and flower pots, curling, Roughrider football, handiwork, photography, cooking and reading. During her life, she was very involved in the community of Edenwold. She especially enjoyed the activities at the Senior Centre as well as her regular card playing dates with her friends.
