Inez attended Central Normal College in Danville, IN and later moved to Indianapolis where she worked as a Clerk for Indiana Court of Appeals Chief Judge, A. J. Stevenson and later for Indiana Governor Henry F. Schricker. Though the law was always dear to her heart, marriage and motherhood became her profession. She threw herself into those duties as fully as she did everything in her life. Inez had a deep Faith which guided the manner in which she lived. Volunteer work filled her years. She was a member of P.E.O. (Chapter P) and a P.E.O. Past Indiana State President. She was on the Board of the Meridian Foundation, and also served on the Carmel Planning Commission.

Inez was a Charter Member of Orchard Park Presbyterian Church, Carmel, where she served in many capacities including Session, the Pastor Nominating Committee and the Banner Bunch committee, to name only a few. Inez's generosity and genuine interest in other people, her deep appreciation of nature and of God's blessings along with her delightful sense of humor will always be among the things we remember most about her.
