Betty eagerly awaited the birth of her soon to be great grandson in November. Betty was preceded in death by both of her parents and her daughter Ann Marie.

After 2 years of commercial college training to become an executive secretary, Betty went on to work for General Motors. She put her work aside to begin her job as a mother raising her 4 children.
