She attended St. Anne Catholic Schools until the 8th grade. She was a 3-year Varsity cheerleader and Class of 1959 Prom Queen. After high school, she married and raised 5 children while she and her husband opened Mike Thalls Insurance. She worked as a teacher’s aide at Parker Elementary School, and at the age of 45, with two children still at home, she felt a calling to be a nurse. She then graduated from University of Indianapolis School of Nursing and was a registered nurse at St. Francis Hospital in Indianapolis Oncology Unit until her retirement. She enjoyed flower gardening, swimming, and horseback riding. She was an avid sports fan and her favorites were Norte Dame, the Pacers and the Colts. Above all she loved watching her children participate in sports and attended all of their games. Her greatest passion was rescuing and helping animals. Her home was always warm, loving, and welcoming to all, and was always open to her children’s friends.
