She loved experiencing the culture of all places she traveled but her favorites were China and Africa. Betty was strong in her faith and loved her Church of Christ community. She was an avid reader and a huge San Antonio Spurs and Cubs fan. She adored her sons and never missed an opportunity to attend one of their sporting events. Betty loved all animals but especially her dogs, Sam, Bandit, Brandywine, and Apache. She touched the lives of so many and will truly be missed.
