As well as loving all types of flowers, she enjoyed crocheting, sketching and poetry. She had a great sense of humour. Betty was a loving and caring wife and mother. Her family was everything to her. She was loved by all.

Also surviving is a special aunt, Genevieve O’Brien, who was more like a mother to Betty.
