She was born in Springfield, Massachusetts on May 3, 1931 to Nellie Shepard and John C. Garand (inventor of the M1 Garand rifle), and was a long-time resident of Galveston, Texas.

She was preceded in death by her son German "Mano" Russo, her daughter Janet Blum, sister Theda Brown, brother Richard N. Garand, and her husband of 35 years Richard E. Premont.
