Panda then had various places of employment cooking and making people smile: Geiger's Restaurant in Brillion, Central House in Chilton, Christel's Bar in Valders, Michiel's Supper Club, Cobblestone Creek, and then Braun's Deer Run. Panda enjoyed a good party, the Green Bay Packers, her flowers, and gardening. She also enjoyed spending time with her family and her many friends whom later became like her family.

Survivors include two sisters and two brothers-in-law: Suzanne (Richard) Fochs of Neenah and Sherril "Sherry" (Jeff) Morris of Duennellon, FL.; and her nieces and nephews: Kyle (Becky) Fochs and their children: Kade (Natalie) and children: Wylder, Baylor, and Stetson, Aiden (special friend Kayla); Craig (Lisa) Fochs and their children: Brianna & Bryce, Leah (Kris) Holly; Jeffrey (Joyce) Morris & their children: Yzai and Athena; Chase (Shealynn) Holthusen & their children: Troy and Braelynn, and Audra Morris. She is further survived by many dear friends.
