She attended Normal School in Winnipeg where she aspired to become a teacher. It is there that she met Ted Witoski. In 1953, they were married and together they raised four children in Winnipeg. Life was a never dull or boring. In her early years, Mom spent many a summer vacation in Vancouver or riding trains through the mountains with her Aunt Alice and Uncle Bill Broomhall.

For many years, Mom was involved in choirs at St. Paul the Apostle Roman Catholic Church, starting with leading the children's choir when her family was young and moving into the leadership of music ministry.
