• Notes

  Vee and her husband, Travis, moved to California in 1948, originally settling in Ivanhoe in the Central Valley before moving to Orange County in 1953. She worked at Disneyland from its opening until the mid-1960s when she began a long career as a social worker with the Orange County Welfare Department, from which she retired in 1983. After retirement she remained in Laguna Woods until she moved to San Ramon. She enjoyed traveling, reading and watching foreign films. [2]
