Betty went to be with the Lord July 4th, just like the little firecracker she was, where she will be re-united with her husband, Bill, and daughter, Ruby, who preceded her in death. Betty loved the Lord and loved serving Him. She was a faithful member of her church, Village Presbyterian, where she served for many years as an usher and worked until the age of 90 in their food pantry. Betty loved life, her family and friends.
She leaves behind her brothers: Jack, Melvin, Lyle and Phillip; a daughter, Sheila (Jim); grandchildren: Jennifer (David), Mindy, David (Mel) and Logan; great grandchildren: Destany, Carl, Carlie, and Cayley; and last but never least her best friend Ed.
In lieu of flowers, Betty requested donations to her favorite charities: St. Jude Children’s Hospital, Shriner’s Hospital for Children, or Children’s Mercy Hospital.
A visitation will be from 7-9 p.m. Friday, July 6, 2018 at McGilley State Line Chapel, 12301 State Line Rd., Kansas City, MO. Funeral services will be 2 p.m. Saturday at the chapel; burial in Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
