Our mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Betty Jean Fox (Betty Boop) passed away unexpectedly at age 61 on Saturday, April 14, 2012 in Bountiful, Utah. Betty was born April 1, 1951 in Salt Lake City, Utah to George Lewis and Betty Peterson. She married her childhood sweetheart, Bill Kierstead. She loved to garden and was a wonderful cook. She loved her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren dearly. She had many friends that loved her and who will miss her. Betty was a wonderful, caring person to everyone that she met. You couldnt help but love this woman after meeting her. She will forever be missed and loved by all those who knew her.
Betty is survived by her children, Steven Kierstead (Stacy), Sheryl Kierstead, Sheldon Kierstead, and Stacie Kierstead; 14 grandchildren; and 6 great-grandchildren; her father and stepmother Teddy; siblings, Judy Jimenez (Herb), Bill Lewis, Talene Dinse (Hans), Dawn Barker (Rod), Terry Wanner (Alan), and Raquel Busch.

Mom, I miss you more and more everyday. Tomorrow is Mother's day and it will be a sad one. They say time heals everything but I don't know how time can heal the loss of your mother. I love you, Mom. Happy Mother's Day
Love,
Sheryl

Dear Betty's Fam... I am very sorry about your loss. I didn't know her that well, but she did stand out in a positive way. I am a good listener if you need somebody to talk to. You know where to find me. If I am not there make sure to ask a front end manager for me. I will get the message. I love you all and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
