She became an evangelist and recorded a religious LP for Robbins Records with two of her young daughters, Melodee and Shirlee.  

 

In the seventies, she resided in Florida where her Foundation For Christ, Universal Evangelistic Miracle And Music Fellowship, Inc. was based.

 

She died in 1993, survived by 7 children.
