The Duncan’s became a family of 8, “the 8 B’s” as each of them were called by names beginning with the letter “B”. Betty is survived by all of her children, Beth, Robert William II (Bill), Bonita Elaine (Bonnie), Bryan Payne, Victor Brent (Brent), and Charles Edgar (Bud). She will be missed by all so very much.

Betty was also a business woman and an administrator throughout her adult life. She made many friends who were near and dear to her. She was always quite active at many things. Along with her business ventures and being such a wonderful daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother, she was a life time member of Eastern Star, a quilter, an avid reader, and a Denver Broncos fan, to name a few.
