She is loved, missed and very dear to numerous nieces and nephews and many friends and family. She spent many years cooking in camps and most recently at Em-Te Town. Betty always kept busy gardening, berry-picking, canning and pickling. Her cooking and baking ability was second to none and she enjoyed having her family and friends gathering and eating at her table. She loved her hobbies of crocheting and making patchwork quilts. Betty was a tireless volunteer in the community, working at the Alder Flats and Buck Lake Schools and Buck Lake Hall. She enjoyed country music and when not too busy on the farm, she and Art loved to go dancing.
