She was also preceded in death by both parents, and as one of twelve siblings, was preceded in death by six brothers: Harley, Otto, Harry, Fred, Ernie, and Dale; and three sisters: Margaret, Bette and Dorothy. Pansy married her adoring husband, Cecil, in a simple ceremony on December 21, 1940, in St. Louis, MO. They lived in Mattoon, IL, where Pansy worked in an upholstery factory and ran a sweetshop with Cecil until she became the devoted, caring mother of their two children, Bill and Sherry. Pansy was creative and her hand-made gifts, as well as her cooking and candy making, were appreciated by everyone. In 1966, Pansy and Cecil were transferred to Danville due to Cecil's promotion, where they lived for 40 years. There they became known by many for a new passion of collecting and refinishing antiques. Since 2005, Pansy resided at Belmont Village in Buffalo Grove, IL, near her daughter, Sherry.
