Close to her heart were memories of "laugh until we cry" moments with the Ya-Yas and other close friends, weeks at the beach and weekends of OU football.

She served as president and board member of the Tarrant County Auxiliary of the Gladney Center and as chairman of the Fort Worth Community Calendar.

Following her presidency, the chapter received the Standards Award, one of the highest awards presented at the sorority's national convention. During her senior year, she was named as one of the Top Ten Greek Women and a Big Woman on Campus at OU. Her career highlights included the Sanger-Harris buying program and store management in Dallas and Fort Worth, and NationsBank (presently Bank of America) Tarrant County and statewide marketing management.
