She married Jim Bunkers on May 1, 1992 in Mitchell. She graduated from Mitchell Technical Institute for Early Childhood Development in 1988. She worked as an Owner/Operator along with her husband at Archie Bunkers Place in Cherokee for almost 18 years. She was involved in many activities within her community including bowling, pool and darts, which she enjoyed with her family and friends.
