She was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph, her mother, father, and brother, Joseph Manning.

Betty was a devout and active member of St. Anastasia Catholic Church, a member of Saint Anastasia Ladies Association (SALA), and was the chairperson that founded the Helping Hands Ministry, which she held near and dear to her heart.
Funeral Mass and Internment will be held on July 24 at 11 a.m. at St. Anastasia Catholic Church, 5205 A1A South, St. Augustine, FL 32080.

So sad to read of Betty's passing. She was a dear, sweet friend to my parents, Bernadine and Gordon McEwen. I'm truly sorry I never got to meet her, but my 95 year old Dad still speaks fondly of his friends, Betty and Joe. Sincere condolences to all who knew and loved her.

We didn't see Betty often, but when we did it was usually with a large crowd. She was always one of the first to reach out & say Hi & ask how we are. She was very sweet lady & was so proud of her kids & grand kids. That was obvious to understand by just speaking with her for a minute. I know she can take consolation in the great legacy left behind with her family. May Jesus help you find peace & strength in your memories. Our condolences go out to all the family & we will keep praying for you & Betty. GodSpeed.

Betty was a truly solid women, a first-class cousin and, in my mother's world, as the daughter of a particularly close sister, a very special God child. Sincere condolences to all.

I will forever hold dear the many memories of Mrs. Conlon growing up. It was around 1974 when I first met a lady that was such a devoted mother. You will be missed. Love, Laura Rogers Bean and family.

I will never be able to explain the loss I feel without you, Mom. You will be in my heart and on my mind forever and every day. Thank you, not only for what you taught me but what you taught my children and grandchildren about what family means and what it means to be a good, loving person. We were so fortunate and grateful to have you in our lives. I know you are with Dad dancing and rejoicing. I am so sorry for the pain you suffered. I love you.
I love you, Nana
