Betty was born August 13, 1934 in Lamesa, Texas. She retired from Sears after 30+ years of service. Betty’s faith was in Jesus Christ.

She was a mama bear when needed, strong and determined. Betty was much loved and will be missed.

The family would like to thank the caregivers and staff of Wesley Oaks Memory Care and Heart to Heart Hospice.
