Betty Ann Dimitt's Obituary
Betty Ann Dimitt passed away at the age of 69 Saturday September 17, 2016 in The Woodlands, Texas. She was born on April 7, 1947 in Nacogdoches, Texas. At the time of her death, she was a resident of The Woodlands, Texas, and had been for over 25 years. She enjoyed visiting with family & friends, working with her plants & flowers, reading, watching her TV game shows & westerns, and playing video games on her Super Nintendo. She was also a lover of all things in nature, and particularly loved her pet bird, Beepers. She absolutely loved spending time with her grandchildren, taking them swimming and to the Houston Zoo every spring break and summer, and her favorite stop was the bird house. She had a strong, feisty eccentric personality with an opinion on everything, and she always let her expectations be known, something that kept her family laughing and on their toes. Betty never had much as far as money, but she would give it all if her loved one needed it. She always tried her best to have something for everyone at Christmas and special occasions even if it meant going into debt doing so. She was so very loved by all of her family and friends and will be greatly missed.
