The following is information that was supplied by Betty for the 50th reunion held in 1985:

"I married shortly after graduation and had two children; a son and a daughter. With the exception of living out of state for a breif time, I have lived in Osawatomie since graduation. I worked for the railroad from 1951 until I retired. Since retiring, I do some oil painting as a hobby. I lost my son in a Navy plane crash in 1960.
