Stella and her husband spent most of their years ranching in the Isabel area. Eight years were spent in Dupree after they sold part of their ranch. There she worked for seven and half years as Deputy Auditor for Ziebach County. They returned to the Isabel area in 1984 and she helped her son Philip run his grocery store. When he moved to Mobridge, she took over the management of the store for 11 years.
There was not anything that pleased her more than to have all her children and grandchildren home for holiday meals so the family could all be together.
