With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our mother, Linda Betts on Nov. 2 at the
age of 79. Mom was special and dear to each of us. She spent a lifetime as a caregiver.
She always had a listening ear, a story to share and a playful spirit. Creating crazy
games and moments were her specialty.

She was born in Cincinnati, OH on Aug. 10, 1945. The daughter of Benton and Emily
(Compton) Willoughby. Mom is survived by her children, John (Patty) Allen, Jr.; Lynn
Hayes; Carmen (Danny) Muir, Tara (Patrick) Mallaley; Jennifer (William) Day; Gabrielle
(Tommy) Morey; 25 grandchildren, 26 great grandchildren; and sister, Phyllis
Willoughby. Mom was preceded in death by two sons, Larry and Gary Allen; a sister,
Judy Nowlin; two brothers, Benton and Eugene Willoughby.
Mom you will be deeply missed but forever remembered. Rest in peace. You'll always
be in our hearts.
