She graduated from high school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1939 and married Wesley “Bud” Stamper on March 22, 1943. They never had children, but were fortunate enough to see many parts of the world because of Bud’s job of over thirty five years with Bechtel construction out of San Francisco.

Betty is survived by a sister-in-law, Gloria Speak of Fort Worth, TX and many nieces and nephews.
Betty will be remembered for her great stories and adventures of her world travels and most of all for how she was always there to help out when needed.
Betty was cremated and no service will be held. Interment was in Park View Memorial Gardens in Kirksville.
