May this serve as a living tribute to Betty’s memory, who left this world a better place just by being in it.
Betty was a person who lived her life with faith and family as her foundation.
Her strong, unwavering faith showed in every aspect of her life. She relied on that faith through everything that her 80 years held in store for her, sharing it with anyone that was blessed to be around her. From her daily devotions, to picking up others for mass, providing the sacraments to the home bound, and being part of the church family. The countless hours she spent at church cleaning, decorating, and doing every aspect of the food pantry was all done through her love of the Lord.
Her children (6), grandchildren (15), and great grandchildren (19) were truly the light of her life; so it’s no surprise that in her final days her last smile was brought when she heard one of the great grandchildren laughing and running through her house. What a blessing that moment was. She made each of us believe that we were the favorite, because in her heart we were; with a different reason to her for each of us. She was a good daughter, sister, and friend. She was an amazing mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
Betty was born the fourth of eleven children. She loved each of her siblings dearly, and enjoyed all the time spent with each of them.
