Betty Jane DeShields, Betty McCoy, Mom, Mamaw, Betty Warvel, adored daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, Christian sister and friend to so many, passed away peacefully at Cumberland Medical Center in Crossville, Tennessee, on March 18, 2017.
Betty was a woman with many talents. She loved to sing in the church choir, played hand bells and piano, and enjoyed sewing and quilting. Betty liked to grow beautiful flowers and to watch the birds enjoy them. She spent years square dancing, and was always active in many projects both at church and in the community. Betty was a giver of her time and talents. She is beloved by so many. Betty's favorite times in her golden years were spent with her husband, Bob, actively participating at Fairfield Glade First Baptist Church in Crossville, Tennessee. Betty was known to be full of optimism and deep joy that came from her faith. She was one of a kind, and a positive example for all of us. Her sense of humor and feisty side were a delight to us all.
She is survived by the love of her life, Robert Warvel; her children, Rick McCoy and wife Pam, Terry Hopkins, Linda Johnston, and Michael McCoy; her grandchildren Ricky, Kim, Craig, Lori, Kaylie, Tim, Michael, Sean, and Adam; her great-grandchildren Jordyn, Ashlyn, Camryn, Robbie, Aayriel, Jaelyn, Jaykob, Owen, and Jonah: her oldest brother, Dawson, and Bob's children Jeff, Leza, Greg, and Dawn, his seven grandchildren, and one great grandchild. We miss her deeply already.
Betty was preceded in death by her husband Robert James McCoy, her sons Guy Randall and Timothy Leigh, her parents Mary and Ernest Deshields, her husband Robert T. Neumeister, and her brothers, Jack, Vincent, Ray, and Don. Betty is having a glorious homecoming with these loved ones.
