Betty Dennis Obituary

Betty Ann Dennis

May 6th, 1939 - September 25th, 2022

On Sunday, September 25th, 2022, Betty Ann Dennis, Loving Mother and Grandmother, passed away at the age of 83. Betty was born on May 6th, 1939 in Quebec, Canada to Clifford and Harriet Pynn. She immigrated to the United States at the age of 5, going on to become an American Citizen, an achievement she was very proud of.

Betty attended Trenton State College before settling down to raise her family in Roebling and Florence, NJ. She went on to get her teaching degree and worked as both a substitute teacher and as Florence Township Librarian. She worked at a Car Auction and eventually became an Auction Clerk for Dingman and James. A fast-paced job, recording sales and collecting money, she enjoyed the excitement that came along with the bidding. She retired to Colorado but found she needed more to keep her busy, so she worked in property management, keeping property files and doing legal work.

Betty loved to travel with both family and friends, loving the beach most of all. She liked to say she inherited her love of the sea from her ancestor, Captain Bonney Bob Bartlett, who captained the boat that sailed Perry to the North Pole.

Betty was preceded in death by her parents and her beloved dogs Muttley and T.J. She is survived by her sister, Cindy and Husband, Bill, her children; son Chris and wife, Vicki, daughter Dawn and husband, David, and son Shawn, 7 Grandchildren, 6 great grandchildren, along with many nieces and nephews and blended family.

The family is planning a celebration of life on May 6th, 2023, as a way to give family and friends time to plan for travel. Details to follow as date gets closer.
