Patton, Betty

Patton, Betty V.

PATTON, Betty V., age 80, of Springfield, peacefully went to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Thursday, January 2, 2025.

Betty was preceded in death by her parents, Earl and Betty Foster. She is survived by her husband of nearly 60 years, Ed; four children, Shelly Watts (Larry), David Patton (Mary), Eric Patton (Carrie), and Sarah Rice (Christopher); 15 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren; sister, Vicky Gannon; brother, Earl "Butch" Foster (Celine); and many nieces and nephews.

Early in their marriage, Ed and Betty enjoyed every spare moment together with friends and family on lakes Cumberland and Erie. In mid-life, Betty was passionate about helping others in need at the Daily Bread Panty where physical and spiritual needs were met. Later in life, Betty always brought the family together around the swimming pool in the summer and in her home for wonderful meals and fellowship in the winter. She loved to play guitar, kayak, rollerblade, play pickleball but most of all, she loved spending time with her grandchildren. Betty was also passionate about studying the Bible. She wanted everyone to know and experience Jesus' grace and forgiveness that is freely given through His grade alone. Romans 10:9-10

The family would like to thank the Springfield Cancer Center and Ohio's Hospice for their loving care of Betty.

The family will hold a private service for the immediate family. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Ohio's Hospice. The LITTLETON & RUE FUNERAL HOME is serving the family. Memories and condolences may be shared at www.littletonandrue.com
