Bethany attended Central Church of the Nazarene in Flint, MI.  She enjoyed knitting, cooking, playing games, feeding the hummingbirds, spending winters in Florida and traveling with her sisters and cousins. The theme of her life was JOY.  She found joy in so many things, but especially in her husband, children, grandchildren, her home, being a homemaker and being together with family. Bethany read the Bible everyday and instilled her love for Jesus in her children and grandchildren.
