She was born in Shippensburg PA, on December 9, 1925, the daughter of the late John L. and Katherine E. (Perry) Handshew. She was the wife of the late Robert L Fogelsanger, who had gone ahead on January 5, 1993.

After moving to the Annville PA area, she worked at the Annville Cleona High School cafeteria, retiring in 1993 after which she substituted where needed in the district. She attended the Christian Fellowship & Missions church in Rexmont PA and always enjoyed spending time with family and friends.
