Betty N. Austin

"Hallelujah, Praise the Lord, Hot Dog!� - a recent exclamation of joy by Betty Nelle Austin, 83, a devout and active Christian, who met Jesus face-to-face on Sunday, Feb. 27, 2005. She was also reunited with the love of her life, Lawrence H. "Bub� Austin, her parents, Anna Mae and Paul W. Upton and her brother, William Michael Upton. Her silliness, her beautiful blue eyes, and loving ways will be missed by her two daughters, Ann Eileen Copenhaver (Sam), Betty Elaine Sayre (David). Mrs. Austin was blessed with five grandchildren: Lisa Horton, Jody Palasota, Sammy Palasota, Jason Austin, and the late Jason Copenhaver as well as eleven great-grandchildren. A private gathering of the immediate family was followed by cremation. The family suggests donations to Parkinson�s Disease Research.
