She became a registered nurse and married Alder Iverson in March 1955. They had three children and in 1963 moved to California when Alder was transferred to the new 3M plant in Camarillo. Mary worked for many years at St. John’s Hospital in Oxnard and earned her Bachelor of Science degree in 1984 from Chapman College. After retirement in 1991 Mary and Alder moved to Lake Havasu City. They enjoyed travels in their RV, cruises, casinos visits, and lake excursions in their boat. There were many delightful visits from their children and grandchildren.
