After the war, she became a full-time housewife, and part-time grape farmer. She was noted for her excellent baked goods, especially grape pie, and homemade yeast rolls. She went out of her way to make birthdays, Valentines' Day, and other holidays special...going so far as to let one of her daughters, while in Jr. High, wear her wedding dress for Halloween. Though she never believed it, her skills in the kitchen were extraordinary and everything she made was culinary gold. Mary Jane was a generous woman, industrious, selfless, charitable, and friendly.When her daughters were young, she would spend regular time reading to them, teaching them letters, and numbers, playing with them, and teaching them how to pray. She was involved for many years with the Ladies of Charity at St. John de LaSalle Parish, and their annual Lawn Fete., After joining Immaculate Conception Parish in Ransomville, she became active in the Rosary Altar Society,a member of the Parish Council and for 20 years, with her husband, Chaired and worked the Bingo games at the parish.
