Survivors include one daughter, Debbie and her husband, Steve Tillis, and one special granddaughter, MacKenzie Moore-Adams; and also her family in Florida, Lynn Snodgrass and Norman Barnes.
It was Betty’s wish that there be no funeral service and in lieu of a service, it was Betty’s wish for her friends to spend time visiting the shut-ins and sick in celebration of her life. Condolences may be sent to our website: www.memorialfcelizabethton.com.
