Bette Adelman Obituary
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Bette Adelman, 86, of Scottsdale, Ariz., passed away Nov. 19, 2022, at home.
She was the wife of former UI Professor Gary Adelman. She lived in Champaign from 1964 to 1978, when she moved to Geneseo, N.Y., to serve as compliance officer at the state university there. From there, she moved to Scottsdale, where she lived the remainder of her long life. There she earned a law degree at Arizona State University and started her own law practice.
In the time she lived in Champaign-Urbana, all who knew her were taken with her intelligence, charm and grace as well as her devotion to ending the United State's participation in the war in Vietnam. The Adelman home is remembered by her friends for the many social and intellectual gatherings that regularly occurred there. She was a very special, beautiful person.
