When Rosemary started grade school, she would ride her horse into Neola to school, she also attended Beebeetown Elementary school and then continued her education at St. Patrick’s Catholic School in Neola where she graduated with the class of 1948.

In 1958, Rosemary and Leo made their home on the Hahn family farm outside Earling, Iowa where they raised their two children: Mike and Mary Patricia who always went by her nickname Patti.
As the children grew older, Rosemary helped on the farm and later resumed her banking career working as a teller at Farmer’s Trust and Savings Bank in Earling and the Defiance State Bank in Defiance, Iowa.
