Elizabeth "Betty" Jane Nash

Elizabeth was the beloved wife of the late James M. Nash Sr. and the cherished daughter of the late Loretta and Raymond Walty. A loving mother to James M. Nash Jr. and Anne (Homi) Patel and the late Joseph Nash, she was also the proud grandmother of Natasha (Scott) Kennedy and the adoring great-grandmother of Lucy Grace Kennedy. She was the dear sister of Raymond (Sharon) Walty and the late Martha (George) Ferguson, and is also survived by her dear brother-in-law, Patrick (LuAnn) Nash, as well as loving nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Known to many as "Betty," she cherished her family above all else. From her parents and siblings to her children, granddaughter, and precious great-grandchild, her greatest joy came from the people she loved. Betty had a beautiful smile, a contagious laugh that could brighten any room, and a gift for making everyone feel loved with her warm, heartfelt hugs. Her kindness, warmth, and generous spirit touched the lives of many, and the love she shared will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
