Bette Diane Purtle

Bette Diane Purtle enjoyed traveling around the world with her best friend and traveling companion, Mary Hillman. She loved going out to eat with her girlfriends getting the most out of life. She was strong, independent, and gave so much sound advice. If you were in her life, she made sure you knew without a doubt that she cared and loved you, with no conditions. She loved having all of her grandchildren over and watching them be crazy and loved every minute of it. She loved zentangling, watching sports, and telling stories of her life. Bette had touched and impacted so many lives on this earth and all around the world. Now she is taking the most beautiful trip ever. Straight to heaven. Bette is proceeded in death by her parents Robert and Jean Bolten, Brother Jerry and husband Don granddaughters Shelby and Ashton. She leaves behind her loving brother John, nephew Chris, Granddaughters and their husbands Elizabeth and John, Cheyenne and Bobby Joe, great Grandchildren Jemma, Josh, Judith, Arlow, Chloe, Trenton, and Joseph, and so many friends that gma really considered family. We will always remember the strength she showed and never gave up. We'll carry her strength with us every single day and her love.

Psalms 48:14 "for this God is our God forever and ever, he will be our guide even until the end."
