As a nurse, she demonstrated her lifelong passion for caring for others. She was deeply committed to her profession, serving as founder and president of a chapter of the Association of Operating Room Nurses (AORN) and volunteering with the Wedowee Hospital Auxiliary.

She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and her sister, Sherrie Gene Causey Ledbetter.
