Betty Grimes Stoker

Betty Grimes Stoker, passed away Tuesday March 22, 2022 at the age of 84.  She was a native and resident of Washington County and graduated from Leroy High School in 1956.  Betty retired after working 43 years as a seamstress at Vanity Fair.  She was a member of Midway Assembly of God Church where she served as Sunday School/Church Secretary for 40 plus years.  Betty enjoyed working in her yard, specifically mowing the lawn and keeping it perfectly manicured.  She kept a journal for years.  Anytime you wanted to know the day and year of a past event you could ask her.  Betty had an infectious laugh that was recognizable by everyone who knew her.
