Betty HAVENS Obituary
On Monday, January 11, 2021, Betty Jo Havens, loving
mother, grandmother and great-grandmother passed away at 83. Betty was born on March 25, 1937, in Ezel,
Kentucky, to Leonard and
Muriel Havens. She grew up in Ezel, Kentucky. Betty moved to Middletown, Ohio, where she worked at E.G & G, Monsanto Mound in Miamisburg, Ohio, until retirement in 1994. She is survived by her sister, Patricia Gilpatrick from Springboro, Ohio, and her two children, Barry Lawson from Middletown, Ohio, and Sandra Al-Ajmi, from Bahrain. Betty was also the loving and proud grandmother to 4 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren: Nasser Al-Ajmi (his children Fahad, Hessa and Dhari Al-Ajmi), Aisha Al-Ajmi (her husband Khalid Babatean, her children Joud, Aziz, Jouri, Jazi and Omar Babatean), Nadder Al-Ajmi (his wife Kimberly Al-Ajmi and his children Yousef and Aliyah Al-Ajmi) and Nawaf Al-Ajmi (his wife Norah Al-Shemmari and his children Rayah and Resma Al-Ajmi). Betty's strength and devotion to God has and always will be the foundation of this family. Betty has chosen not to have a funeral service. She will be buried in Ezel, Kentucky, where we will have a short private graveside service.

Betty Jo was my other momma. From 7th grade on, I spent most of my days at Betty's house because her daughter Sandra and I were best friends. (Our moms even shared the same name!) Sandra and I went on camping trips, family vacations and weekends with either my family or hers, back and forth, sharing our families. So many wonderful memories!! A weekend at Betty's meant waking up on Saturday and Sunday morning with a lavish southern breakfast waiting, complete with her delicious homemade biscuits and gravy. Through the years, we have all shared our joys and sorrows together. Betty was a loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She loved nothing better than having all of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren gathered around her during every opportunity the family could all get together. She had a wicked sense of humor with a quick wit and would always keep us laughing. Betty, we know you are up there in heaven enjoying the company of all the loved ones who have gone before you. Until we all meet again...sending love and hugs. You will be missed. ❤❤❤
