After about 6 months, they moved to Rexburg where they lived for almost a year.  On day Sadiera announced “I want a house”; thus started their search for a house.  They chose a house on Ramona Avenue in Rigby where they have lived for the past 34 years.  Sadiera and Hugh tried to adopt a child and almost succeeded, but circumstances sent them home alone.  She struggled with this for the rest of her life.  Aside from being with her sweetheart Hugh, Sadiera loved raising and showing Collies; Mickey Mouse, and art work were also among her favorite things.  Sadiera struggled with health issues since she was 18 months old.  10,000 plus needles and too many surgeries to count, she passed away three weeks after her 60 ^th birthday.
