Betty S. Burns, 78, of Owensboro, passed away Wednesday August 7, 2024, at Owensboro Health Regional Hospital. She was born July 24, 1946, to the late Gilbert and Zula Greathouse Vickers.
Betty was a faithful follower of Jesus Christ right up until her last breath, and now in her new home with Our Holy Father. She loved to share her faith with any that would listen. Betty was always full of love for others and lit up the room that stories she would tell. She retired from Walmart, after 35 years, where she gained many wonderful friendships. Betty was a warm, caring, generous person who found joy in helping anyone in need. Many times, she has provided for others, often in secret, never taking credit for her actions. She loved all kids, but especially her own two sons, as well as her grandchildren and great granddaughter. The bond she built with kids both in and out of the family has remained for many, even long after they have grown up.
Along with her parents, she was also preceded in death by her husband, Robert G. Burns Sr.; a son, Robert “Robbie” Burns Jr.; two brothers, J.W. Vickers and Donald Vickers; and a sister, Wanda Vickers.
Betty is survived by her son, Keith Burns; grandchildren, Kim (Trena) Burns, Kristi (Josh) Boyt, and Brad (Hannah) Burns; a very special great-granddaughter, Mia Boyt; and a sister, Joyce Pinkston.
The funeral service for Betty Burns will be at 12 p.m. Monday August 12, 2024, at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory, where visitation will be from 1 until 6 p.m. Sunday and after 10 a.m. Monday. The burial will be in Nickel Ridge Cemetery.
Expressions of sympathy may take the form of contributions to the Salvation Army, 215 South Ewing Road Owensboro, KY 42302.
