Betty loved watching  the feeding and habits of the hummingbirds and blue birds.  She also enjoyed planting flowers around to landscape to add color and beauty.  Betty looked forward each spring to planting  a vegetable garden, then sharing the bountiful harvest with family and friends.  Many memories were made by Jack and Betty while motorcycling on Jack's Suzuki Cavalcade.  They had many great adventures traveling to Florida, Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee.   They also frequented southern Indiana to look at the colors each autumn. 

Left to cherish Betty’s memory  are her husband Jack; a son, Terry Holloway  (Donna) of Thornhope; a daughter, Lanae Holloway of Keller, TX; and her two treasured canine companions, Bear and Eddie II.

Preceding Betty in death are her parents Raymond and Lucille Lewis; a sister, Frances Riner; and a brother, Harold Lewis.
