They settled in Cleveland, and they were original charter members of St. Luke United Methodist Church. Brick and Took had three children Beth, Bob, and Brook. After her 30 years in teaching and making tons of friends, Took retired a few years behind Brick. That did not stop her though! She found a new passion and many new friends working at Neysa's Fireside Shop. They quickly became like family to her. She loved helping people find the perfect gift. Watching their own kids grow up, get married and having children of their own was something she and Brick were so proud of. They were both so active in the grandchildren's lives. They had three grandchildren all with their own funny little stories that Took and Brick would brag about. Great grandchildren then came along and gave Took such joy.
