She had been ill with Parkinson’s Disease and was in a Nursing Care Facility.

She worked for 27 years at General Electric and retired from there. Betty was a wonderful cook, she loved to crochet, garden and take care of her home.
She also loved music and liked to play the guitar and sing. In her last days she would love it when her grandson and son-in-law would bring their guitars to the nursing home and she would sing along.
Often the nursing home staff would comment on what a great sense of humor Betty had and they loved her. Betty also loved the Lord and she attended church in Bloomington and would often go to service at the Nursing Home. She loved it when we prayed with her.
