She was a long-time, active member of First Baptist Church in Tullahoma and served on many committees throughout the years. Betty continued to use her teaching and reading instruction skills as a Sunday School teacher. She also taught English as a Second Language (ESL) for over ten years. Betty loved being a part of First Baptist, and was always a volunteer during the Living Nativity, which was held every Christmas. Betty had many talents, including painting and writing poetry. She wrote poems for friends to celebrate their retirements from the school and church.
