ELIZABETH CONE HOLLOWAY SANDERSON

Known to her friends as Betty, she was born August 3, 1928, to Dr. William Luther and Jean O'Leary Holloway, in Jacksonville, Florida. Betty passed away on March 22, 2016 at the age of 87.

She was preceded in death by her husband Howard H Sanderson Sr. in 1988, after 43 years of marriage. She was also preceded in death by her parents; infant daughter, Judith Anne; brothers, Robert and Jack; and sisters, Jean Holloway Bein and Catherine Holloway.

She is survived by brothers and sisters. Her daughters and sons. In addition there are 21 grandchildren and 41 great- grandchildren. Also there were a multitude of people who have had the blessing of being taken into the Sanderson home for different lengths of time. We love those as if they were our brothers and sisters.

Betty was raised in Jacksonville, Florida, the 6th of eleven children. During WWII she met a young dashing Naval Aviator by the name of Howard H. "Sandy" Sanderson with whom she fell in love, married, moved to California, raised 7 children and served God, family and community with all their love and energy. They were very active in Bethel Church of Red Bluff California, serving as teachers, youth leaders, leading Bible studies, organizing many activities for the youth to keep us busy and out of trouble. Both Betty and Howard loved people and God and they were blessed to introduce many people to a relationship with Jesus Christ.

After Howard passed away in 1988 she moved to Davenport, Iowa to be with daughter Patti Jean for several years then moved back to her home in Red Bluff. Of note, she operated a day nursery in Red Bluff for 51 years, eventually caring for grandchildren of some of her first charges. In 2008, she moved from Red Bluff to Rocklin, California to be near her sons Howard and Timothy. Even though her health was failing, she kept an extensive prayer list on her wall, praying for family, friends, strangers and our country.
