Buy her a balanced mutual fund and let her take the $300that she needs from it on a monthly basis. A decent fund should grow 5-7%/yr and she would only be drawing about 3.6%/yr so the fund should grow a little. You can use this strategy as long as she lives and if we get a strong sustained market, she could even give herself a raise at some point. The fund will prob go below $100K at some point but unless the market goes way down and stays there, the fund will rebound.

You can get a CD at around 2.25% now. Probaily 3% not far from now. Doing this she will only cut into 1-1.5K a year if she lives 20 years it'll still be at least 75,000

Use FDIC INSURED CD’s. Look for good rates and purchase so she renews at different times, giving recurring access to her money.
