Bette Bogart, of Little Rock went to be with her heavenly father on February 13, 2022, at the age of 87. She was born on December 9 in Forest Park, Illinois to Ruth and Leonard Kohl. At the age of 14, she moved with her family to Camden, Ark. She graduated from Fairview High School where she played on the basketball team. After graduation she moved to Little Rock where she met and married Henry Bogart.

Early on she coached the girls basketball team at First Lutheran School where her daughters attended. She was a very active member of Grace Lutheran Church where she sang in the choir for many years and led the Children's Sunday school classes. She hosted the annual Easter Egg Hunt at her house for many years for the children and families of Grace. She loved the Lord, life and her family and was a loving and generous person. She was always willing to help in any capacity that she could. She made everything she did fun whether it was singing or dancing.

In 1977 after attending garage sales as a hobby, she decided to become an "estate sale planner". This lead to an estate sale business that she conducted until she retired in 2017 when she handed the reins over to her daughter Deena Reynolds.

She was preceded in death by her parents, two sisters Anne Stickler and Patsy Woodral, husband Henry Bogart, and grandson Zachary Arnold. She is survived by her brother Bill Kohl; two daughters Ramona DeMilt and Deena Reynolds (Paul); four grandchildren Dalton Arnold (Sydney), Hunter Goodwin, Sr. (Holly), Adam Reynolds (Rachael), Drake Reynolds (Riley); five great grandchildren Hunter Goodwin, Jr., Henry Arnold, Olivia Arnold, Kaleb Reynolds and Kyndall Myers and a host of nieces, nephews and cousins.

A memorial visitation will be held Monday February 21, 2022 at 1:00 p.m., with a service at 2:00 p.m. at Grace Lutheran Church on Hillcrest in Little Rock.

Donations or memorials may be made in lieu of flowers, in Bette's name to Grace Lutheran Church. Arrangements are under the direction of RuebelFuneralHome.com
