She worked in Jackson most of her life beginning with the airlines and Bubbas, where she was co-manager for over 20 years. At one point her dad had back surgery and she took a leave of absence for 6 weeks in the summer to come home and help run the farm.

She had a strong sense of duty, especially to family. Rili was an avid softball player, she played on two championship leagues for Jackson Hole. They won two state championships for Wyoming and went to Nationals for two years. Her dad went with them to Seattle and helped coach. She developed many lasting friendships.
