Ardath was born June 10, 1936, in Rosalia, Washington, to Fenton "Buck" and Bertha Wilkerson, and the family later moved to Pendleton, Oregon.

After graduation from Pendleton High School, Ardath went on to Oregon State College, where she was a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. Following her time at Oregon State, Ardath enjoyed working as a flight attendant for United Airlines.

Ardath enjoyed a fun career later in life as a Personal Shopper at Meier & Frank Company. She had a passion for painting, traveling and spending time with family and friends. Her beloved cat, Dolly, also brought her much joy in recent years.
