Bette was born May 15, 1930 to George Howard Vincent and Faye Celestia Boyter.

Together they raised four children Robyn Moore (Randy), Lori Peterson (Cal), Kevin Miller (Debra) and Brian Miller (Sally).
Bette was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she enjoyed serving in the Relief Society and Primary. She had a strong testimony of and love of her Savior.
She loved working in her flower garden, spending time with her dear friends, her close relationship with her sweet sister Louise and most of all she loved being a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She delighted in spending time with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She especially enjoyed cheering on her grandchildren at countless ball games. She also enjoyed the love of her sister-in-law Rhea and her many nieces and nephews.
She is survived by her children, 12 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by her parents, husband, brother, and grandson Cody. How she looked forward to her reunion with each of them.
