In June 1930, she and her husband attended school full-time at North Texas State Teachers College. They received their degrees just as the Depression of 1928 fastened itself upon Texas.
They were able to find teaching jobs in the Valley View School District west of Wichita Falls.
In 1948, they moved to Canadian, and in 1955, the took their final jobs in Houston. In June 1965, the Breazeales retired to Lampasas.
A celebration of Mrs. Breazeale's first 100 years was held Nov. 16, 2002, at which time she was presented with the "Yellow Rose of Texas" award from the governor.
