Born in Honesdale, she was the daughter of the late Leo and Hilda Melody. Betty and her late husband were married on August 7, 1950. She was a homemaker and worked as a seamstress at Katz Underwear Factory in Honesdale. Betty was a dedicated wife of 62 years and a devoted mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
