She was a graduate of the Anadarko High School in the class of 1958. She met and married the love of her life, Hillard Lynn Horn, who was a local businessman from Washita, on August 31, 1958 in Anadarko.

She continued her passion as a teacher for the next 25 years which brought great joy and satisfaction as she touched the lives of so many children.
