Vida worked at various jobs including working in the potato harvest and in different potato warehouses. She then went to work at Ashton Elementary School as a cook. She worked there for 14 years until the death of her husband in 1990. After his death she moved from their home in Marysville to a home in Ashton. She lived there for 20 years and then moved to the Ashton Living Center where she resided until her death.
