Obituary for Betty E Voorhis

Betty E  Voorhis
VOORHIS, Betty E. age 88, went home to her Heavenly Father October 31, 2016. She was born on June 9, 1928 in Dayton, OH to the late Robert and Christine Clark. She retired from Pitney Bowes after 27 years of service. She moved to Four Seasons retirement village in Columbus IN in 2005

Betty is preceded in death by her loving husband Donald E, her parents, Robert and Christine Clark and brothers, Herb and Chuck.

She is survived by her son Ken and wife Jennifer Voorhis of Mammoth, WY; daughter Gail Voorhis and family friend Pat Bennett of Shelbyville, IN; grandchildren Bonnie Jo (Dan) Dziesinski, Woody and Robin Voorhis, and Leslie (Josh) Lewis; great grand-children: Lysi, Belle, Drew and Xander Lewis; brother Raymond and wife Norma Clark, sisters-in-law Carol Clark and Norma G. Clark, and also survived by nephews, nieces, and other family and friends.

Betty loved the Lord. Her faith and big heart remain an inspiration to many of us. We celebrate her rich life and have the greatest confidence that in leaving her earthly home and body, she has been transformed and will live eternally, worshiping her Savior, Jesus Christ and heavenly Father with the saints who have gone before her.

In lieu of flowers you may honor Betty by sending donations in her memory to provide young people opportunities to experience Great Smoky Mountains or Yellowstone National Park. To do so contact Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont (GSMIT.org) or Yellowstone Association (Yellowstone.org).

“ All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; The grass withers, the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord remains forever.”
1 Peter 1:24-25
