Betty Eubanks Obituary

Betty Eubanks, 83, of Fort Morgan, passed quietly at Eben Ezer Lutheran Care Center in Brush after a short illness. She was born March 29, 1935, in Fort Morgan, CO, to Bud and Elizabeth (Middlemist) Ballew. A graduate of Fort Morgan High School, she later married the love of her life, Charles Eubanks, Jr. on February 26, 1956. They eventually moved to Kansas City, KS, where they lived for over 30 years before returning to a ranch south of Fort Morgan, where her heart had always resided. Once back home, she became active in fund-raising for area hospitals and started FUR-ever Friends, a non-profit animal protection organization, for which she worked passionately as long as her health would allow. She was a fervent advocate for ones in need, whether it be pets, injured animals, or one of the many young people she took in to provide shelter and assistance throughout her life. Hers was a life of service until the very end. She was a skilled horsewoman and and seemed to have an uncanny connection with the beautiful creatures. I can imagine she is looking over us from the back of her beloved stallion, Abbazon. God rest your soul, Mom. Your work here is done. There will be a Celebration of Life Saturday, July 6th from 11am to 2pm at Country Steak Out Restaurant, 19592 East 8th Street, Fort Morgan CO. Please join us in commemorating her life.

Dear Kim , Your Mom is such a fan of you !!! She loved you dearly !! We had some colorful adventures during our friendship which started at East Morgan County Hospital. She had such determination to be successful in whatever she tried. I am not able to attend her memorial and I will never forget her

My sympathy to your family. i have fun memories of Betty's love of her animals, and just plain spunkiness for life. My thoughts are with all of you.

To Betty's son: I am indeed saddened to learn of the passing of your mother. Your father was a colleague at Woodlin School and he was the sponsor of the Class of '95, which was my daughter's class. The friendship with your parents was treasured and I am so grateful to have been given a copy of Betty's book of the love in her life, Charlie! My thoughts and prayers at this sad time. Lois Scott, Lindon

Betty was one of the "cousins" that I have so many memories of. I give her great credit for the many things she achieved in her life. I regret I didn't get to see her once more.
