Betty was born in Grand Bayou, LA and was a longtime resident of St. Bernard Parish before settling in Marrero, LA. She found pleasure in the details of everyday life and caring deeply for others. She will always be remembered for her loyalty and dedication to her family, her caring and loving spirit and her laughter. Her passion for dancing and listening to country music was surpassed only by her love for spoiling the grandchildren. She was a wonderful example of what it means to care for others and will be deeply missed by us all.
