Etta graduated from Clarksville High School in 1952. She was office management at Montgomery Ward when Charles' work, the Bird Cage at Ft. Campbell, took them to Amarillo, TX. Upon retiring from Santa Fe Energy where she was a Data Entry Supervisor, she and Charles moved back to Clarksville to live in their home that they built in 1962. Etta loved flowers and gardening, traveling to different states and countries, and going on cruises.
