She was born in Atkinson NE to Frances Grubb and Hattie Erb on July 21, 1922. She married Leon Hollenbeck and they had three children. She divorced and later married Melvin Stevens who was the love of her life. They lived in Alaska for over 50 years where she worked as a postmaster. She was very involved in the Rebecca Lodge and served as Grand Nobel. She enjoyed the outdoors and being adventurous. She loved to ski, travel, and ride motorcycles. She was an avid reader. Ferne was also an accomplished artist and very talented at needle point, cross stitch, sewing, pottery, and gardening. She had a keen mind which she kept active by doing crossword puzzles, word search, and watching British murder mystery movies and documentaries. She earned the nick name of “Go-go-granny” because she loved to drive fast in her younger years.
