Winifred was united in marriage to John William Boyea on June 18, 1949, at Zion Lutheran Church in Seymour Township. The couple lived most of their life in rural Cadott, but had also lived in Milwaukee, Eau Claire, Oregon, and Colorado.

For over 13 years Winifred had work as a switchboard operator at the Northern Center in Chippewa Falls and for a couple years at Presto Industries in Eau Claire. She was a natural born salesperson any for many years this served her well in her position with the World Book Encyclopedia Company. She had been a district manager and at one time had 90 people working under her in 3 ½ counties. She held several very successful training sessions and was the recipient of many benefits and awards for salesmanship with the company.
