90. Born in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, she later moved to Elizabeth, NJ, where she lived

St. Thomas.
Betty was predeceased by her parents and her grandfather, Thomas J. Amos, who
lovingly raised her. She was also preceded in death by her husband Edward, with whom
she shared 56 wonderful years of marriage before his passing in 2010.

Mahalick; her grandchildren Kyle Patrick, Aaron Edward, and Kathleen Laine; and her great-grandson, Alex. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered for her warmth,
dedication, and generous spirit.
