She was employed at BP of Wayson’s Corner for many years where she bonded with so many customers, that to this day she is still friends with. Mostly known as Mom or Grandma was a woman of wisdom and a confidant to many.  She was a lifelong member of the American Legion; she had a love for the seaside and all the things that came with it.  Her hobbies in her earlier years included traveling, cruises, playing slot machines and just enjoying the simple things life had to offer. Grandma (Mom) Betty enjoyed gardening, soaking up the sun, spending time with her family and friends, occasionally, taking a ride down an old back road with no real destination.  She was a mom and grandma first. Most importantly Family was everything to her.
