Elizabeth (Betsy) Ann Ford, age 61, passed away and went to be with the Lord August 16, 2019. A service to celebrate Betsy's life will be held at Canyon Hill Community Church September 14, 2019 at 1:00 PM.
Betsy graduated from Snohomish High School, class of 1976, and remained connected with the school as an educator in the DECA program where she met, trained and supported many students. She believed in service to others volunteered with many organizations including youth group and women's ministry at SFM Church and recently at the CHCC food bank.
Betsy was known for her love of people and love of life. Blessed are those whose lives were touched by Betsy - her ability to connect instantly with everyone she met was unmatched. She had a large group of friends that she cared for deeply. Betsy’s infectious laughter and joy was founded in unconditional love and an openness to learn. Her grace and ability to share her experiences and her faith have impacted many.
Betsy loved entertaining at home in Snohomish and at the beach house on Whidbey Island during the summer months. Summers on the island with family and friends were spent in search of clams, crab, fish, and beach glass… Ship alert! Betsy loved being with family - from sister’s weekends to long conversations with her kids and grandkids. And, traveling the world with her husband of 43 years, Jerry, was always a highlight of her year especially their trips to Italy.
Betsy is survived by her husband Jerry Ford, children Laura, Kyle and Kevin, grandchildren Elise, Gabriel, Julie, Father David Nasman, sisters Cyndy and Karen, and brother Brad, and countless extended family and friends.
Donations in honor of Betsy can be made to the Canyon Hills church food bank.
