She graduated from Campbell High School in Campbell, Calif., in 1948. It was their first graduating class. She then quickly married her sweetheart, Dominic Anthony Bitondo. Don and Pip stayed in the Campbell area of the Bay Area where she worked as a bookkeeper for several companies for 40 years while Don worked for Stauffer Chemical and then the San Jose Food Bank. Upon their retirements, they relocated from the Bay Area to Galt. They both were active in their community, in the Warrior Booster Club and Galt Lions Club, and were often seen at many local events. They enjoyed going on cruises and trips to Tahoe.
