She started her nursing career at St. Francis Hospital in the obstetrics department in Port Jervis, NY. She continued as a Pediatric Clinic Nurse at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital and St. Lukes-Newburgh Hospital. She enjoyed her work and often shared many interesting stories.
Ma enjoyed listening to Marc Anthony, whom she was able to meet and get a photograph with, or Andrea Bocelli. Her final days were spent listening to them and singing along.
She also enjoyed traveling throughout the United States and visited many locations. Atlantic City, Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods were popular stops too.
Her home was always shared with one or two cats who brought smiles to her face and laughter all day long.
