Betty spent most of her working life in the restaurant business. First at Dairyland in Tatesville from 1960-1967, then at The Corral Drive In, Everett, which she and her husband built, owned and operated from 1968-1997.
Betty was a very thoughtful and caring person, never forgetting to send birthday and other special occasion cards to family and friends, always trying to brighten their day. She enjoyed traveling with Jim and going with “the girls” on mini vacations. After retiring, she spent most of her time caring for home and family, in one way or another, and her cats. She loved her cats.
She will be much missed by friends and family.
