She played for and was manager for the Flying Queens team during her time at Wayland.  She married Leon Williams on August 25, 1956, in Lubbock, Texas. She taught English in numerous schools spanning her 24 year-long career as an educator.  She moved wherever her husband's Pastorate called them to be, and always managed to bloom wherever God planted their family.

She was active in church and taught Sunday School, most recently with her Redbud Baptist family.
