She was also member of the Escanaba lodge of Pythian Sisters and the Lewis Cass chapter Daughters of the American Revolution. She was one of the member of the local board for the Michigan Childrens Home at St. Joseph Mich., and one of her last acts was to send a large box of clothing to the institution after several weeks of patient work.
