The family relocated to the Salt Lake City area in the late 1960s, and Betty made her home in Magna for the past 39 years. Her greatest joy was her family, and she devoted herself tirelessly to loving and caring for her children and grandchildren. In her younger years, Betty enjoyed playing softball and volleyball with family and friends. Throughout her life, she cherished family gatherings, eagerly anticipating barbecues, holidays, and any opportunity to spend time with those she held dear.

She also leaves behind 25 grandchildren, 45 great-grandchildren, 13 great-great-grandchildren, and her sister, Joan (Glenroy) Green of Spotsylvania, VA. Betty was preceded in death by her parents, her loving husband Harold, her son-in-law Randy Powers, two grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, three brothers, and two sisters.
