She started her working career at Hardee’s, Tri-State Signing and most recently at DECO in Decorah. 
Missy had a passion for animals and enjoyed volunteering at the Humane Society in Decorah. The dogs and cats enjoyed her as much as she enjoyed them!  
Missy loved the outdoors, her little flower garden and her feisty puppy, RoseMary. 
In her free time she liked watching Netflix, animals, doing crafts, listening to music, playing games and visiting with friends. She looked forward to going to Country Jam every year.
