She also worked many years as a cook at the Rock Rapids Community Hospital. In 1974 Nettie was united in marriage to Ervin J. Banwart, at Larchwood, IA and they lived their lives in West Bend, IA. Nettie enjoyed her family, as well as gardening, hand-sewing, and volunteering. She became a member of the Apostolic Christian Church in 2010.

Nettie battled cancer since 1996 and her quiet and enduring demeanor exemplified, and set an example to those around her.
