Betty’s journey is nothing short of remarkable. As a veteran of the Army Nurse Corps, she answered the call to serve during World War II, traveling across the globe to provide critical care to soldiers in the Philippines. At a time when few women had the opportunity to serve in such roles, Betty stepped forward with bravery and skill, proving that women belonged not only in caregiving professions but also on the front lines of history.

Her service to others did not end with the war. Betty’s compassionate spirit carried into her family life, where she raised a loving family and remained deeply connected to those she cherished. Through decades of change and progress, she continued to embody the very essence of dedication and resilience.

A Lifelong Passion for Learning

Even at 103 years old, Betty’s thirst for knowledge remains insatiable. She reads an impressive two books per week, favoring the works of John Grisham and other captivating stories that keep her mind active and engaged. Her love of literature is a powerful reminder that learning has no age limit, it is a lifelong journey that keeps us sharp, inspired, and connected to the world.
