Betty Jean Ruth Meyers, 88 of New Haven passed away Wednesday, February 7, 2024, at
her home with her family by her side. She was a Lutheran by faith. Betty was a retired dental technician. She kept her mind sharp working puzzles and playing along with her favorite game shows. She could raise a garden, mend your clothes, and play a tune on the piano. Betty loved to cook and bake for her husband and family; her banana bread was a favorite and regularly requested recipe. She was young at heart, she enjoyed ice skating and playing video games. She frequently played Tetris and Dr. Mario on her original Nintendo. Christmas was Betty’s favorite holiday, she had a massive collection of decorations that she displayed indoors and out, filling every nook and cranny. She had an appreciation for the beauty of nature, she loved watching cardinals and eagles in flight, she recently took the trip of a lifetime and visited the Grand Canyon. Betty’s interest and experiences were broad, she enjoyed many things in life, but nothing compared to the love shared among family.
