Born on February 24, 1933, she grew up in Akron, Ohio, with her siblings Virginia, Don, John, Cecil, Anna Belle, and Donna. Betty met the love of her life, Richard Alan Davis of Akron.

Betty was married for 51 years to Richard, who passed away in 2003.

Betty worked at Goodrich Tire in Akron and, after raising her five children, at Bose for almost 20 years. She enjoyed years of quilting at the Hopkinton Senior Center and visits from grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She moved to Acton in 2014, and she enjoyed making friends, playing bingo at the Acton Council on Aging, and swimming at the Beede Swim and Fitness Center pool.

Betty leaves behind her son Richard Alan Davis Jr. and his wife Dagmar of Douglas; daughters Judah Harris of Keene, New Hampshire, Catherine Davis of Acton, Sandra Brault and husband Allan of Pelham, New Hampshire, and Pennie Driscoll of Newburyport. She leaves 13 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren; a sister Donna Westfall of West Virginia; a niece Sharon Burdzel of Northbridge; and many extended nieces and nephews in Ohio.
