Dear Black family...this is so sad. I was looking for another obit and ran into Betty...  Has to be Father God... Prayers for you all and I am so sorry for your loss.. Grandma Betty was a special person.. Lolove ...Sue Napravnik Coffman

Proud family picture, Mom was getting a little tired but pushed through as the matriarch.

Got together for my birthday and did this 4 generation [ic and mom was a real trouper sharing the day with our family.

BJ and his Grandma shared memories of their own.  This was a real meaningful coming together.

Jenny's family, Jenny, Ben, and their children, Claire and Owen, along with their Grandma/great grandma.

Bob and I really loved the many times that we could share the day with her.

Mom was there for all of the family's big events.  This was  one of our greatest days, Jenny and Ben's wedding. Beautiful days gone by.  

One of Mom's many talents, seamstress.  This was my wedding Day and mom made her dress, the bridesmaids dresses, as well as my gown and veil.  She did this for my wedding, Mary's wedding, and Cheryll's wedding.  When my daughter, Jenny, was born she took my detachable train and made her christening gown.  Quite a talent!

We will always remember that  beautiful happy smile while enjoying a good laugh with us outdoors and in❤️.






I loved  sharing of our silliness, orneriness, and laughs.  I love you forever+!  Your favorite daughter, Mary.

Grandma Betty, 
Your face would light up when we visit. We will miss your stories & your laugh. Love always. 

We will miss you, Grandma Betty.
Love you always.

From the memories Grandma Betty shared  life was not alway easy, but she alway found humor even in the most challenging times. She was a strong women who put family first and saw the best in everyone. She had a kind heart and an infectious smile. She was alway ready to play a game, whether it was on the computer or with friends and family.

I like to think that Grandma and I had a special special connection. When I would call to visit with Grandma I always ask right away “Do you know who this is?”, she would respond with a smile in her voice “oh yes it’s my Josh,  I knew it was you”. For the past 15 years Karly and I would visit Grandma a few times a year to play Yahtzee and visit. Recently she loved to hear about our stories from the ranch and she would share stories about the goats and cow she had while growing up and how mean they were. Grandma loved when we broke her out and went out to eat at Village Inn. You could always count on her to order her chicken fried steak with coffee. Over the last year, she would always light up when I reminded her that my son’s name was  Theodore Ancel Black, she said her dad would be proud to have Theodore share his name and that it was a good name. I will miss the welcome and goodbye kisses and tight hugs she alway gave, but I am thankful for the time I had with her and the memories I carry and will always have!

Betty and my Aunt Ellen (RIP).   One of her favorite vacation partners.  Those summer vacations to Vegas for the slots machines.  Hope you are both smiling together now.

A last big Christmas at Cheryll’s before the families grew and would need a hall to celebrate the holidays.  Those were good days.

Betty had this done for all of us a few years back.  A good time of a good memory for her.  Love you mom.

This is her great child Tyler he never got to get a picture with her but he will surely miss her

She had a beautiful voice, and could cuddle the babies and sing them to sleep like no other.  She really loved babies.

She was and always will be in our hearts. She was a very loving woman. 

Grandma Betty will be missed. She was a well hearted and kind woman that I knew in my life. And I would miss her dearly. Grandma Betty we love you.

Grandma betty will be missed and remembered by those who loved her dearly its so sad and I'm so sorry she never got to meet my son. She would have loved him and he would loved her like everyone else. I'll be sure to tell him about her. May you rest in peace. 

My sister-in-law was much more to me.She was as close as my sister and in my life for 70 years. Most people don't usually have this, but I was blessed.Much loved, much appreciated and will be missed.

Grandma Betty will be missed. I'm so sorry that she never got to meet my son. He would've loved her like everyone always did. My husband only got to meet her once. She was a beautiful kind-hearted woman. I'll always have the best memories with her.
