Betty was born on September 6, 1943 in Hornell NY. She went to school in Greenwood NY. She earned her certificate in cosmetology. She lived in Perry, NY with her family and then moved to Tucson, AZ. She eventually moved back to Perry and made her home. Betty had a deep love for her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, her brothers and sisters, and communicated with them every day. She loved to dance, go out to eat, going to the ocean and seeing the beach. Above all she had a love for her God Jehovah. Through her knowledge of her God and the scriptures, Betty believed in a resurrection, and that she will live forever on a paradise earth. Betty dedicated her life to her God Jehovah which impelled her to share her future hope with anyone who would listen and up into her death was a member of the Mt.Morris congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Until the paradise we will miss you – Mom, grandmother, sister, aunt.
A Memorial Service for Betty will be held on Saturday, November 22nd, at 2pm at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, 1721 Rte 20A, Leicester, NY. To send a condolence and for further information please visit:
