Betty Daily Obituary

Betty Ann Daily, 80, of Pottstown, PA, and beloved wife of Richard J. Daily, went to be with Christ on December 2, 2017. Betty is survived by six children: Patricia Andrien, Paul James, Michael, Robert, Thomas and Jeffrey Daily, sixteen grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. She is predeceased by her daughter Kathleen Daily Will. In 1980, Betty founded the Pottstown Chapter of Birthright international, and served as its volunteer Director of 37 years, retiring in 2016. She gave her time, love and support to three generations of expectant mothers. A devout Catholic, Betty served God by serving others.

She initiated an outreach program to collect items for the Cluster of Religious Communities, Mom’s House, the Veteran’s Association, and the Salvation Army. She was the recipient of the Sally Lee lifetime achievement award in 2013 through the YWCA of Pottstown. The mission of Birthright is to meet the maternal and material needs of pregnant woman, regardless of age, race, culture or religion. Birthright is a volunteer, non-profit and non-political organization funded by donations.

Grandmom,

I will miss you already tremendously, as will everyone you ever met. Ever since I was a little girl, my dad would tell me there is a special place in Heaven for your Grandmom and I wasn't sure why he would say that. As I grew older and came to understand the expansive reach of your influence, it made complete and total sense. Your heart was supplied with a never ending supply of love and your soul was fed by selfless service. I always admired that about you. I know you were welcomed into His arms so warmly and that special place you earned here on Earth was given so lovingly. I love you and hope that you will watch over us, giving us little cryto messages to be servant when we are able.
