Her family of 5 then moved to Stewart Valley in 1978 where she spent her time gardening, raising her sons and baking. In 1989 she realized her dream of buying her own restaurant, Mom’s Korner. They successfully ran Mom’s Korner until 1994 when they had to sell the restaurant due to Larry’s health problems. After selling the business, she spent her time taking care of Larry, which was a full time job. She enjoyed painting, reading, knitting and of course her favorite hobby – Bingo. At Betty’s request there will be no funeral service but a private family gathering will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society in memory of Betty.
