Imogene was married to Chester William Warren on September 2, 1951 while Chester was serving as a paratrooper in the 11th Airborne Division during the Korean Conflict. To this union were born two children, Melvin Lynn and Anne Renee.

Imogene taught kindergarten and first grade for more than 38 years, beginning at Pleasant Hill, Garden Grove, and Van Wert Schools, with the majority of her teaching career for Clarke Community at the Weldon Elementary School, teaching first grade.
