Brownie was born, raised, and lived her entire life in Montcalm County, which is something she was very proud of. For many years, she was very active at the Sheridan VFW and the Auxiliary. She worked for several years at the Ore Ida plant in Greenville and loved being around people. Brownie never met a stranger and could strike up a conversation with anyone. She loved being home and spending time with her family especially her grandchildren.
