She was born in Bedford, Ohio, the daughter of Guear and Ruby Whitesell and moved to Edgewater Park, where she graduated from Burlington City High School In 1964. She then attended Penn Presbyterian Nursing School in pursuit of a nursing career and finished Burlington County College where she became an RN. and worked as a nurse for over 30 years at Virtua Hospital in Mt. Holly, Mt. Holly Family Practice, and for several years prior to her retirement, she was managing nurse of Assisted Living at the Evergreens ln Moorestown, New Jersey. By all accounts, from those who worked with her or came under her care, she was an exceptional care giver, highly skilled and an empathetic spirit.

She was a generous, caring, highly intelligent and empathetic woman with a great sense of humor and a lifetime of friends.
She loved animals, gardening, cooking, dining out with family and friends and travelling to Naples, Florida with her husband, Joe. She was available to help friends and anyone who needed her help.
