She was a homemaker who shared much love with her family and all who entered her home. She loved sharing coffee and food with all who stopped to visit. She was a member of the Thomas United Methodist Church. She enjoyed playing her piano by ear, reading her Bible, crocheting, baking bread, and chatting about life. Betty Lou will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
