She cherished her children and grandchildren, married for 65 years to her love, Jerry. A Coloratura Soprano, she won the Miss Liberty Beauty Pageant, had her operatic debut in Carnegie Hall at age 17, and performed in Philadelphia regularly with The Paul Whiteman Big Band. These were just a few of her many accomplishments. When producer/director Cecil B. DeMille heard her sing, he invited her to come to Hollywood. Despite her tremendous success, she chose to give up her career because she wanted to be a devoted wife and mother.
