A proud mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Betty Jo Dent was the matriarch of our family. She loved games, crossword puzzles, gardening, volunteering at polling places for elections and the local thrift shop, and supporting her church. She mowed her lawn herself until she was in her eighties and has hand-made quilts, dresses, wreaths, and gifts for everyone in her life so that we all have something special from her. Her favorite holiday was Thanksgiving because it brings our large and loving family together every single year. We honor her memory by loving each other and standing together in this difficult time.
