Pinky was born on May 12, 1922 in Newport N.H.  to the late Merton and Mae Gobin.

During WW II she  followed her husband around the country to various Army training camps until he left for the Pacific. During WWII she worked at the Newport Clothing Company making overcoats for the  U S Army.

When her husband returned from WW II they made their home in Claremont and raised their two children. She was a loving mother and grandmother always taking time for her grandsons. She was a beautiful seamstress and took pride in her work.  In 1996 they moved to Deland FL  and she was very active at the YMCA.  In 2017 she returned to Charlestown NH to live with her son and daughter-in-law.
