Betty was known to everyone as "Maw Maw". She was a devoted Christian, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. She was also known as the "Dessert Queen". Her two most requested cakes were her Strawberry Cloud and NY style Cheesecake. She loved to work in her yard and cook. She loved to help others in any way possible, which included building houses or churches, sewing, painting and cooking. Her biggest passion was cooking whether for her family, a family in need or a large church congregation; you could always find her in the kitchen.
