Education, both formal and informal, was always important to her. Her favorite jobs included working at Llewelyn Library and as a secretary at Burdick and St. Veronica schools. While at UW-Milwaukee, she worked for the pre-college program and tutored and mentored minority students.
Ida was a proud member of the Oneida Tribe of Wisconsin, and could play a mean ragtime piano. In lieu of flowers, memorials to the American Heart Association appreciated.
