Betty was one of seven children born to the late George and Anna Leopold. Betty was born on May 30, 1925 in St. Paul, Minnesota. For 49 years she was married to Burton, who preceded her in death. She was an incredible stay at home mom raising four children.

She loved her family, nature, wildlife, her gardens, spending years in northern Wisconsin on North Sand Lake, and following Burton's retirement, embracing the deserts of Arizona as well. She will be greatly missed.

Betty is survived by her children, Debby (Bob) Graziano, Thomas (Flora) Hendrickson, and Patti (Steve) Bacon; son-in-law, Don Sokup; eight grandchildren; and twelve great-grandchildren. 

She was preceded in death by her husband, Burton and daughter, Connie Sokup.
