She is a native of Dupont, but she resided in up-town New Orleans and had a career in the retail sales business. She was employed by Lerner Department Stores and the "Shi Shop" in New Orleans. She had a contagious zest for life and lived every moment to the fullest, celebrating everyday as a gift from God. She was always able to have a good time regardless of the circumstances and kept her wonderful sense of humor. She was a very giving and generous person, always concerned about everyone else's happiness and well-being.
