Kibbee was employed by McGraw Edison until the time she and Perry Joe decided to own and operate the Novinger Food Locker. They spent 20 years processing meat for the people of Novinger and surrounding areas. After the closing of the locker, Kibbee went to work for Hollister, Inc. where she was employed until her retirement.
