A 1972 graduate of Girard High School, she last worked as a receptionist for Akron Children's Hospital, Boardman, Ohio, and previously at St. Joseph Health Care Center, Warren, Ohio. She retired in 2014. In her spare time, she enjoyed spending time with her Parkwood group of childhood friends and her high school gang. However, spending time with her family brought her the most joy.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brother, Howard Hetrick, and sister-in-law, Kathy Hetrick. A memorial service will be held at a later date. The family asks that any material contributions be made to American Diabetes Association. "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away".
