Vondel was born August 9, 1933 in Clinton, Oklahoma to Dillard and Irene Hubbart. She graduated from Leedey High School in Leedey, Oklahoma.

Vondel was able to be a stay-at-home mom for her four children. When they were all old enough to go to school, she went to work for First National Bank in Borger. She enjoyed the banking industry and worked her way up to Vice President before she retired in 1987. In 2016, she moved to Pampa and a few years ago moved to Amarillo and most recently to Canyon.
