Obituary for Betty Dorene Adlington

BETTY ADLINGTON
It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and matriarch, Betty Adlington, on Sunday, July 16th, at the age of 99 years. She is joyfully reunited with Ross, her husband of 69 years, and her beloved mother, Zuella, and father, Elston who have preceded her in passing.
She was the cherished mother of Brenda (John) Armstrong, Glenda (Dale) Smith, Tim (Jeanette) Adlington, Jon (Peggy) Adlington, Debbie (Geoff) Allen, Shelley (Scott) Adlington, and Patti Adlington. Betty was a loving grandmother to Scott (Trish), Candy (John), Jonathan, Ryan (Sarah), Justin, Kyle (Ashleen), Krista (Evan), Kara (Al), Jon, Stephen, Josh (Taryn), Steven (Robin), Richard (Vanessa), Adam (Jane), Cassandra (Kelsey), JR, and many great-grandchildren.
Betty was a woman of many talents. She dedicated herself to various charitable organizations over the years and served as the pianist at Springford Baptist Church until the age of 91. Among her many hobbies, she delighted in betting on horses and playing cards with her family. She also had a deep love for babies ( hence seven children) and animals, particularly horses and dogs. Her many friends will always remember her for her world-famous apple pies.
