She moved to the Jamestown area where she and her companion Joe formed a band called JR’s. The band traveled as far south as Texas to entertain.

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. I look back on all the wonderful, loud and chaotic times we had in Minto in our younger years, at your house and Grandma Kowalski's. It was so much fun since all of us cousins were so close in age. Those were the days of great family gatherings! We will hold those memories in our hearts as we send our love and prayers to you and your family.
