Shortly after graduation, Betty married William Newson and the couple celebrated 50 years of marriage. She was a devoted housewife and mother before becoming a travel agent.
Throughout her life, Betty was actively involved in many churches in different states around the country. She had many passions in life; traveling with family and friends, shopping, going to Vegas, and playing golf. She was also Captain of her tennis league. However, another beloved pastime at the top of her list was playing cards. She thoroughly enjoyed her time spent with friends in her weekly card clubs.

She leaves behind many special nieces and nephews: Susan, Pattie, Karen, Annie, Robert, James, and Bob. She will be greatly missed by Jeanette Bennett, her best friend of 51 years. Betty also leaves behind her special fur baby, Rocky.
