In 1949 she married Philip Edward Tovrea Jr, of the Phoenix-based Tovrea Land and Cattle Company. She later married Amory J. “Jack” Cooke, who became president of the Hearst Sunical Land & Livestock division. She spent much of her life in Woodside, California, and was particularly involved in the equestrian community, including horse-assisted therapy through the National Center For Equine Facilitated Therapy. In her elder years, she faced disputes with family over the management of her estate, which concluded in 2009 with a conservatorship. In 1996, she was inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. She died in Templeton from complications due to pneumonia.
