She accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior and was baptized while attending New Salem Baptist Church, near Dixon.  Betty was a 1980 graduate of Maries R-1 High School, Vienna.  She loved to dance, to dress up and look pretty for any occasion, to collect holy rocks and seashells, and collecting "Betty Boop" items.
