Gertie O’Hearn was born on March 28th, 1942. Her parents, John “Joe” and Doris O’Hearn were living on the family farm near Spencer, IA when Gertie was born. Her love for the outdoors and gardening began there on the farm. Gertie graduated from Spencer high school and later graduated from Mercy School of Nursing in Des Moines, IA in 1963. Gertie often shared stories about her nursing school years and the lifelong friendships she made there. Gertie and Vernon Ault were married January 19th, 1963 and they were not only husband and wife but best friends. They had six children: Dave, Mary, Dan, Don, Susie, and Rich. Her children and their families were the most important part of her life. Gertie enjoyed hosting family events, and everyone was always welcome. She loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and friends. Being of service to others was the way she lived her life and was a great example to follow. She worked in nursing and it was a career she loved and took much pride in. She retired in 2008 after 45 years working as an RN, Director of Nursing and worked in Home Health Care. Some of the places she worked at were Mercy Hospital in Des Moines IA, Woodward State Hospital in Woodward IA, St Luke Lutheran home in Spencer IA, and her last place of employment was Pioneer Manor Nursing Home in Gillette WY where she was blessed to have worked for 21 years and it became her second family.
