Betty Sue loved to love on people. She worked as a waitress in various places throughout her life and made an abundance of life long friendships. Nana, as she was known by many, loved babies and children especially her grand, great and even great great grandchildren. She loved her furbabies she had throughout her years. She found joy in gardening, vegetables and flowers, and sharing the fruits of her labor in a hot meal for those around her. She loved God and was strong in her Christian faith. Betty liked to shop and could be seen some late nights wandering the aisles of Walmart. By far her family was most important to her. She loved her family, like really LOVED them, the way the bible says. She always met you with a smile and found the good in everything and everyone. Her loving presence will be missed by so many.
Her life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, Ephesians 4:32-"And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ."
