She worked at Sutherland's Dept. Store for several years and then found her true vocation | she became the house keeper at St. Augustine's Church. For 25 years, she took care of the priests and of the rectory | cooking, cleaning, organizing, and looking after the priests as if they were her sons. In 1989, she was affiliated to the Order of St. Augustine, an honor which was accorded to her because of her loving service to the Augustinians for so many years.
