Betsy grew up on the family farm east of Atwood, KS, and attended school in Atwood where she was valedictorian of her graduating class of 1970. Her college career consisted of 2 years at KU and 2 years at KSU, graduating with a degree in secondary education with an emphasis in History. On August 17, 1974 she married Roger P. Holste. Together the couple worked side by side raising crops and cattle.

Betsy was a woman of many talents. She was a wonderful cook and baker.
