The great loves of Betty’s life were her Heavenly Father, her family, grandchildren and singing.  During her life Betty was a woman of great faith who always expressed thankfulness, even in the midst of hardships.  She was a woman of encouragement to and prayer for all who were fortunate enough to know her.  She was a staunch supporter and indispensable help to her husband, and together they helped share the Good News of Jesus in countries around the world.
