The service will follow at 3:00 pm at the church with Brother Brad Adcock officiating. Burial will be in the adjoining cemetery.

She was preceded in death by her parents, C.D. “Red” and Virginia Terry.

Survivors are her loving husband of 59 years, Leilus E. Walker; son, Lee Walker (Dixie); daughter, Stephanie Davis (Marold); sister, Margaret “Bobbie” Stockton; grandchildren, Brandon Davis (Rebecca), Ashley Smith (Jonathan), Dawsyn Walker, Logan Hill, Ashlyn Threet (Charlie), and Dylan Hill; great-grandchildren, Liam White, Posie Threet, and 4 nieces.

Betty began going to Stony Point Church of Christ when she was 5 years old. She and Leilus got married there when she was 16. They raised their two children there. They and their 2 children obeyed the gospel at Stony Point and later in life, both children had their weddings there. Both of her parents are buried there. When she and Leilus became empty nesters, they committed a lot of their time volunteering to work with the youth, and they took them on numerous outings. They always looked for opportunities to teach God’s word to the youth who they loved spending time with. Then, they began conducting personal Bible studies with hundreds of precious people who they loved so much. Stony Point Church of Christ remained a steadfast part of Betty’s life. Betty cherished every moment that she was able to spend with her grandchildren! She loved watching Brandon and Ashley play sports and she loved riding the carts at Walmart with Dawsyn. Later in her life, she cherished personal visits from her children, her grandchildren and her sweet nieces. Leilus remained her 100% love and caretaker.  she loved the sweet hugs she would get from all of her grandchildren. She loved the friendships she made in the hospitals and nursing homes. She cherished reading the Bible together and even doing Bible studies with several friends and family calling in on the same phone call. She deeply loved every pet she ever had. Her little service dogs blessed her life so much! She will be missed beyond words by many!

4 Comments on “Betty Jean Terry Walker”

  1. Betty was not blood kin to me but it sure felt like she was. You will be remembered always as funny, always smiling, The best Christian lady you would meet. She is with her God forever more., Love, LaDonna.

  2. Betty was such a bright and shinning star. She talked with me hours on the phone when my life suddenly changed 7 years ago. She and I read and studied the Bible. We prayed. She kept me grounded and helped me to understand that I was on God’s life plan and that he loved me and would always be there. She gave me many Bible versus to ready. Then as she got sick we continued to talk on messenger. She was such a precious God loving Christian. She is home with God now. Love and prayers to Lelius, Lee , Stephanie and their families. Love you all and prayers going up.

  3. So sorry to hear of Betty’s passing even though I know she is in a glorious place smiling, happy and healthy. I miss her smiling face coming through the front door at church. She was a very sweet and special lady and I will miss her. God bless all the family.
