Vilma and Guy were married in 1951. They went dancing most Saturday nights and for a time hosted ballroom dance classes from a studio in their home. They loved traveling the world, and eventually discovered Aruba was their favorite destination. Vilma continued their tradition of spending 10 weeks there into her nineties. Vilma stayed very active and could be found walking Plymouth beach and the beaches of Aruba. She enjoyed listening to local live music and working out in the gym until she was 92.
