Betty was born on November 23, 1952 in Geneva, N.Y. the daughter of the late Jacob and Nellie Skinner Keller.

As Betty grew up, she loved playing her saxophone as well as cheerleading and many other school activities. On holidays and occasions she and her family would attend the Oaks Corners Presbyterian Church. Betty retired after 35 years of service from Finger Lakes DDSO where she worked as a caretaker and resident director. Betty loved racing DIRT Street Stocks. She was known for her trade mark bra that she had on the roof of her car to help distinguish her from her husband Scott while they raced. She was most proud of being able to race at the NYS Fairgrounds (Moody Mile). Betty also loved her pets and all animals as well as gardening, birds and her annual trip to Daytona. She loved her home; it was where she wanted to be with her family and her pets.

She is survived by her loving husband of 41 years, Scott Fremouw of Phelps; children, Lance (Anna) Gillam of Lakeland Fla., Stacy Jane Gillam of Phelps, Brandi (Dima) Kuzmenko of Newark; grandchildren Deontae, Melea Ann, Alaena, Paxton, Amira, Dominic, Milo and Tobias; brother Alvin (Patti) Keller of Clifton Springs; sisters Nancy (Vince) Denisi of Newark, Marilyn Falkey of N.C. and many nieces and nephews

She was predeceased by her mother-in-aw Pearl Clark Fremouw; Sister Patty Keller, and Brother in law Wade Falkey.
