Betty passed away at North Platte Regional Health Center, North
Platte, NE.
She was born in the Ludell Township, KS, the oldest of three children.
Betty married Floyd E. Trail on June 12, 1961. She was a loving and devoted wife and mother to Floyd and their son. Betty worked as a bookkeeper until the birth of her son, after which she became a stay
at home mother. She became a closet Trekkie while watching the original Star Trek series with Doug.
She received her first catcher's mitt as a Mother's Day gift from Doug.
She enjoyed being Doug's catcher as he practiced pitching (until he could throw hard enough to knock her over). When Doug entered
Junior High, Betty went back to work as a bookkeeper until she retired.
After Floyd's retirement, the couple spent time traveling together in
their camper. Frequent trips to Iowa to spend time with their son, his wife, and their granddaughters were her favorite journeys. Another memorable trip was to Alaska with her brother and his wife.
Betty was a member of the First Christian Church of Atwood and
served several years as the bookkeeper for the church and was
a Sunday school teacher.
Betty loved spending time with her family, and especially her
granddaughters and her great-grandson. She passed on her love of animals, especially chickens and kittens, to her granddaughters and
her fear of snakes to her son.
Betty was preceded in death by her sister Dorothy; parents, Allie and Pearl; sister-in-law Jill Samson (Joe); brother-in-law Earl Niermeier (Dorothy) and husband Floyd.

and his wife of Ludell; a granddaughter and her husband of New
Virginia, IA, a granddaughter and her husband of San Diego, CA
and a granddaughter of Johnston, IA; a great grandson son, and
