After 30 years of service, Betty retired from the US Postal service where she was employed as a rural postal carrier in the Brookville and Lewisburg areas.

She volunteered at the Soup Kitchen and had made over 100 plastic bed mats for the homeless. She was an animal lover. Her hobbies included sewing, crocheting and she was an excellent cook. A football fan, Betty especially enjoyed following Ohio State. She will be remembered as a kind and caring person who was meticulous about all that she did.
