She was co-chair for development at the Center for Research on Women and Gender at Stanford University, and chair of the Stanford Peninsula Parents Association. She was a huge fan of Stanford sports, especially men's basketball.

Recently, she was president of the Peninsula Center for the Blind. Over the years, she was involved with activities at Ladera Oaks Swim and Tennis Club, serving as a board member. She also was commissioner of a Fantasy Football League, organized with friends.

Mrs. Bouchier graduated from Stanford University in 1966 and received a master's degree in education from Harvard the next year.

She is survived by her husband of 34 years, Bob Bouchier. They have two daughters, Erin, 25, and Megan, 22, who grew up in Menlo Park and graduated from Las Lomitas district schools and Menlo-Atherton High School before going on to university.
