Alice and her children moved to the Bitterroot Valley near the Lee Metcalf area. She graduated from Stevensville high school. She received her nursing degree from Great Falls. Betty worked at the old Community Hospital downtown and at St. Patrick Hospital as an emergency room supervisor. Then she moved to the new Community Hospital as a surgical nurse.
She married Leo Hansen in 1972 and moved to the ranch in Florence with his seven children, Susie, Patty, Tsoni, JC, Barbara, Leo and Cindy with whom she shared a birthday. She was actively involved in the EMT Program for the Florence Fire Volunteer Program. After Leo passed, she was more involved with the LDS church. Betty went on a two-year mission to Salt Lake City, where she researched Genealogy for both the church and her family, a project that she loved.
