Betty was the 5th of 7 children and graduated from the DAR School in Grant, Alabama. Her mother died when Betty was 5 years old and that meant she and her siblings had to work hard on household and farm chores.

Living with family she got a job at Southern Bell, marrying in 1953 and becoming a mother to Linda in 1954. Her greatest joys were that of being a Christian, mother and Nana.

She began working at Robins Financial Credit Union where she later retired after 32 years. She was a devoted member of Warner Robins Church of Christ. Also in the 1960's, she and a family friend, Exia Lane began keeping small children for young mothers to attend Sunday School. She loved rocking babies and teaching valuable care and life lessons to the mothers. She did that work until she was no longer physically able. Betty was a strong single mother who taught that the Lord will provide against all odds if you follow his word and try to live in that manner. She gave to others when she had very little, loving people and loving God.
