Betty was the loving mother of Angela (Larry), and David (Kasey); loving grandmother of Jason (Shelly), Larry (Robyn), Joseph, and Lauren; and great-grandmother of Owen and Carson. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews. She was the daughter of the late Benjamin and Alice Molero, and was preceded in death by her brother, the late Daniel, and her daughter, the late Lori.

She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and friend, and will be forever missed by all those she leaves behind. The family extends a heartfelt debt of gratitude to Thelma, Betty’s caregivers, as well as the Amedisys Hospice team, for their dedication and unwavering care.
