Born on June 15, 1927 in Illinois to the late Edwin and Edna Wilson, Betty graduated from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan with a degree in Nutrition.
She was an active and founding member of Cross and Crown Lutheran Church in Matthews, North Carolina. She was the most kind hearted, giving and loving person that everyone knew.
Survivors include Matthew P. Longfield and wife Judy of Erie, Michigan, David J. Longfield and wife Rose of Smithfield, Virginia, Martha K. Lighthall and husband Dennis of Charlotte, North Carolina, Barry Hantman of Ewing, New Jersey, 8 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Sarah Hantman of New Jersey, the father of her children, Paul Longfield, and her late husband, Don Kroeger.
A service to honor her life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Humane Society of Charlotte would be appreciated. Miss Betty loved her animals!
