She married Jack Judi on June 16, 1944 in Price, Utah. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti Temple. Her happiest times were spent raising her family in Hiawatha.

She especially enjoyed serving with Jack in the Manti Temple and in their calling as LDS Church employment specialists.

She enjoyed holiday family traditions, such as cooking for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, going to the desert for Easter and decorating her house for the seasons.

She was preceded in death by her husband; her daughter, Becky; her son, Terry; her grandson, Terry Haslam; her parents; her brothers Dal and Gerald; and her sister, Theressa Frandsen.
