BARTLESVILLE, WASHINGTON CO, OK
(permission granted)
Betty was born September 20,
1933 in Pawhuska, OK to Verona & Roy Lemon. She grew up in Pawhuska and
graduated from Pawhuska High School. Betty married Ray E Bowersock on
August 3, 1952 and they made their home at the legendary pink house in
Dewey while serving area residents with their grocery needs for over 40
years. Ray preceded his wife in death on January 24, 1989.
Betty (Me-Ma) will always be remembered as an avid OU football fan, not
missing a single game throughout the 70s and 80s and passing her passion
and devotion down generations that continue to this day . She loved
spending time with family and friends. Betty had a special place in her
heart for animals, putting up martin houses each Spring and taking in
mutts and stray cats. She was a world traveler and the disco ball in her
living room graced family and highway 75 passers-by for decades.
Betty is survived by her brother Lewis Lemon of Redlands, CA; one son,
Rick, and his wife Debby of Bartlesville; one daughter, Debbie (Bowersock)
Smith, and her husband Mike of Bellefontaine, OH; three grandchildren,
Megan (Bowersock) Byers, Blake Bowersock, and Tammi Smith; three great
grandchildren Conner Byers, Chandler Byers and Colton Smith.
She was
preceded in death by her parents, her husband Ray, and two brothers.
