She was predeceased by parents Arthur and Mae Dwyer as well as her four brothers, four sisters, and her son-in-law Robert Hatfield. She was also predeceased by her loving and inseparable husband, Joseph Cooper of 60 years.
She is survived by her loving daughter, Donna Joy Hatfield and her loving and devoted son, David who was her sole caregiver for many years. Also surviving are her four adoring grandchildren; Victoria Hatfield, Brian Hatfield, Brad Hatfield, Kimberlee Van Horn (Matthew) and two precious great grandchildren; Ivy and Jake Van Horn.

Betty’s most enjoyable moments were when she was dancing with her husband. They were great dancers and many times people would stop dancing to watch. She loves going to garage sales and having her own annual sale. Dolls were her specialty.
Betty was a truly warm and caring person with a humorous touch of spunkiness. She will always be in our hearts and thoughts forever.
