Faith enlisted in the Army in 1950 and served until 1955. Faith worked at MD Anderson cancer research after she was honorably discharged from the Army. Bob and Faith moved to Mahtowa, MN. Faith farmed while Bob worked at the Cloquet Papermill. Faith was a member of Grace Baptist Church in Cloquet, and Emmanuel Baptist in Duluth.

After Bob’s retirement, he cooked and Faith washed the dishes. In lieu of flowers, the family asks a donation be made in Faith’s name to Grace Church, as it was her desire was to purchase a new dishwasher for the church.
