On February 14, 1970, she married her surviving husband, Frederick A. Kraft, with whom she was blessed to share almost 53 years of marriage before her passing.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by: one son, Kurt Kraft and his companion Gail Manson of Tonasket, WA; one grandson, Frederick A.

Mrs. Kraft was a self-employed Accountant who worked for many area businesses.
In earlier life, she attended Wagner United Methodist Church in McClure and was a member of the American Society of Accountants.
She enjoyed reading, Sudoku, playing piano, singing, baking, and cooking; however, her greatest joy came from spending time with her family, and she will be remembered as a wonderful, loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend.
