Betty, as she was known to her friends and family, was born in Warren, Ohio, where her family owned the local jewelry store, The Vautrot & Myers Company. She was a Buckeye, attending The Ohio State University and a proud sister of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. She enjoyed a retail career in New York City before moving to Orange, CT where she resided and raised her family for 50 years. Betty was a pioneer in the consignment business, opening one of the first consignment stores in Connecticut. She never lost her love for a good yard sale!

Gams, Gee, and Gammies, the names her grandchildren gave her, took an active role in their lives. To encourage their creative side, she always had a craft to keep them busy. She taught them to cook and talked to them about life lessons. She went out of her way to buy each of them the perfect Christmas ornament each year and to make them their favorite meals.

Her summers were spent on Nantucket Island where she was famous for her heart-shaped waffles and Nantucket blueberry muffins. She loved to garden and meticulously weeded all of the beds well into her eighties. She took great pleasure in hosting the family, cooking delicious meals, and creating beautifully designed flower arrangements.

A private celebration of life will be held this Summer on Nantucket. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Pat Roche Hospice Home in Hingham, MA or the Siasconset Union Chapel in Siasconset, MA.
