They were married on the Navel Base in Pensacola Florida, where they resided for two years. They had three daughters: Tami, Tari and Traci.
Earldeen loved spending time with her children, grandchildren & Great Grandchildren. She loved to travel with her family and friends. She was an avid Bronco Fan who drove to all the home games. She always had an opinion on the game and the quarter backs leading the game.
She was an accomplished businesswoman. She started as a real estate secretary and bookkeeper in Arvada, CO. years before starting her adventures in the horse business with her husband Ed. In 1976 she, Ed and the girls made the big move to the Western Slope (Delta) where she went into building and operating a pig business while working fulltime brokering hogs.
