Miss Betty (as she was called by her Georgia friends) was born in Wichita, Kansas, in 1944 to the late Damon and Queenie Lowe. She moved to the town of Halstead in the 1960’s where she married and raised two daughters, Ellen and Lena. In 1985, she fulfilled a life-long dream of purchasing a home in Burton KS and lived there for 28 years. Miss Betty spent most of her career in the healthcare industry, working at local hospitals and nursing homes in housekeeping services. After retiring in 2013, she moved to the Atlanta area to live near her youngest daughter until her death.
Miss Betty spent her retirement enjoying hobbies (adult coloring books, classic movies, bird watching) and having great adventures. She loved to travel and was ecstatic to take a Caribbean cruise, tour various Georgia vineyards, visit Graceland and attend local arts and music festivals. She spent numerous weekends at Lake Allatoona for fishing and picnicking.
Betty leaves behind her daughter, Lena Heidel, of Roswell GA; her sister, Karen Haas, of Grove OK. Her daughter, Ellen Bockhaus, precedes her in death. A service to celebrate Betty’s life will be held at a later date in Georgia. Online condolences may be expressed at www.woodstockfuneralhome.com.
