NaDean worked for Del Monte, then was a cook for the Franklin School, and then worked for Ritewood Eggs in both Franklin and Lewiston inspecting eggs by hand before it became fully automated. She also helped haul chickens between both locations. Oakdell noticed she was a great worker and they kept her on working quality control checking eggs until she retired. She then spent time working and helping at the Franklin County Senior Center for seven years.

She and Joe opened their home and hearts the their granddaughters. They raised them from when they were young to adulthood. When she was young she knew times were hard and she used to use the trolley that went between Richmond and Salt Lake.

She loved the gospel and made sure that everyone knew about her testimony. She lived to serve God and her family. She had many callings in the church but playing the piano for the Primary was the one she loved the most.

Joe and NaDean had three children. A daughter Phyllis, and twin boys Joseph Leo and Gordon Neil. She taught her family how to work hard, love much, and how to have God and the Gospel in your life. Some of those she taught learned quicker than others. She also taught patience and loved what she taught and those she taught.
