Betty was born in Okmulgee, OK on March 7, 1949 to Willie Lothridge and Mamie Viola Lee (Powell) Lothridge. She lived in Tishomingo, OK for many years, and it was where she raised her beautiful family. Betty was a long-time member of Bullard Chapel Baptist Church, where she was the church's Sunday School Treasurer for many years. It was there that she met her best friend, Miss Jane Hartgraves. They enjoyed each other's company for decades, and she loved spending time with Jane's grandchildren, Cameron, Connor, and Creed Corbin. Over the years, she has enjoyed paint-by-numbers, cooking, watching movies, reading, listening to good music, cute shoes, sparkly jewelry, and a good cup of coffee-especially from McDonalds. She made the best Jello Pudding & Apple pies you'd ever eat. Betty was the best Mama, Mimi, Big Sister, Sister-in-Law, Aunt, & Friend there ever was. Not only that; she was a genuine, loving, caring, and kind person. She will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved her.

Betty was preceded in death by her parents, Willie & Mamie; brother, Alton Lothridge; great Niece, Khloe Dawn Lothridge, and many cousins and friends.

Betty is survived by daughter, Melissa Lothridge, and husband Mick Triplett; grandchildren, Lucas & Joey Triplett, of Tishomingo, OK; sister, Linda Savage and husband, Billy, of Kingston, OK; sister-In-Law of 46 years, Joan Lothridge, "favorite" Niece; Ashlea Dawn & husband Johnny Cobble of Tishomingo; nephews; Jeremy Lothridge of Tishomingo, Thomas Savage of Kingston, and William and wife, Miriam Savage, of Lake Worth, Florida, Great-Nieces; Kaidance, Rebekah, and Ruth.
