The couple married on February 11, 1961, and they made Chelsea their home through the years. Betty loved her family and took great care of them. She was a wonderful cook and enjoyed having them at her home for meals, and they loved all the tasty treats she made for them. Betty was a great seamstress and loved to make things. She also enjoyed taking trips to Branson, Missouri, taking in the sites of the music shows. Her time with the grandchildren was her most favorite and she made each moment special. She took loving care of her husband Clint until his passing last year even though her health was not quite good.
