Elizabeth Moultrop Mears was born May 11, 1931 in Chicago, IL, the daughter of Robert Moultrop Sr. & Doris Fay Mears. Betty lived in Albany for a number of years, moving to Bainbridge in 1996. She retired from Dougherty County Board of Education. Betty was a member of First United Methodist Church.
Betty was kind and quick. She had a dry sense of humor and often "sounded off" having no idea why her audience was giggling. She enjoyed talking with people, especially if they were "her people", and didn't mind agreeing to disagree. Betty rarely compromised her own opinions on things. Music set her soul at peace. She found serving others with her knitting and crochet projects filled a need for both the receiver and herself. Betty loved children and dogs and the order depended on the child.
Survivors include her children: a son and daughter in law of Albany, GA and a daughter and son in law of Bainbridge, GA; 6 grandchildren; 7 great-grandchildren; her brother and sister in law of North Carolina. In addition to her parents, Betty was preceded in death by her husband, Hunter B. Parker; her children, Karen Gargel and Delvin Dorminy; and her brother, Robert M. Mears, Jr.
