The couple lived and farmed near Wahpeton, where Mary worked for Veda's Steak House, Breckenridge, MN, and the Elks and JC Penney of Wahpeton after her children had grown. They moved to North St. Paul, MN in 1963; after retiring the couple moved back to Wahpeton in 2000. Robert passed away August 10, 2004, and Mary returned to St. Paul to be near family.
