Enid was born August 08, 1929 to John and Winnie (Homan) Avery in Omaha, NE. Enid grew up and attended school in Omaha, and was 1 of 9 children in the Avery family.

They moved to Yankton in the early 1980's, where Enid worked at several businesses: managing East Meadows Apartments, owning and operating Rest Haven Assisted Living Center, cooking at The Senior Center, JoDean's Restaurant and Dairy Queen.
