She was active in Sacred Harp singing (fa-sol-la), taught to her by her father, and wrote a song entitled "Consolation" that was included in the 1936 Denson Revision of the Original Sacred Harp. She was a sister to Paine and Howard Denson (also buried at Fairview Cemetery in Double Springs AL), Margaret Denson Cagle, and Jarusha Denson Edwards, who were all well-established Sacred Harp singers and composers.
