Eunice grew up in Marshfield, WI, where she attended school. Eunice met the love of her life, Don, at the roller-skating rink and they were married shortly after.

She was a familiar face on the school bus, having been a driver for over 20 years. Eunice and her family made many memories camping and snowmobiling in her younger years. She loved playing Bunco with her friends, knitting, gardening, and flowers. Above all, she cherished her family and friends.
