Betty J. Todd

Betty worked at many different jobs, having obtained her Certified Nurse’s Aide

certificate and her Beautician’s license. She worked at Hardin County Hospital as a CNA, in the laundry and in the kitchen. She loved people and made so many friends over the years. We couldn’t go anywhere without someone saying “oh, you are Betty’s kid? I just love Betty!” Betty was a member of the Rosiclare General Baptist church where she raised her two youngest children and insisted on the others attending when they were home visiting. She was Baptized in Big Creek, at the Iron Furnace along with her mother. Pictures show a line of people all the way up on the bridge awaiting their turn. In later years, she attended the First Baptist Church in Rosiclare.

She is survived by her children, Mike (Sandie) Moore, David (Kathleen) Moore, Susan (Doug) Cook, Rick (Leanne) Moore, Patty Tidwell, Tracey (David) Brasel, and Sheri (Bert) McCracken; 16 grandchildren; many great grandchildren and great great grandchildren; sisters, Donna Cowsert and Susie Walker and brother Gary Damron.
