Betty was joined in marriage to Ken Fischer August 3rd, 1954 in Wayne. She was an only child and married into a family of nine. It was quite an adjustment.
She taught at Lyons, Kennard, Scottsbluff, and Grand Island. Teaching was truly her calling.
Betty’s faith was important to her. She also liked to sing, so she combined the two and sang in Church Choirs in Wayne, Blair, Scottsbluff, and Grand Island. She and Ken loved to dance. How they would glide across the floor.
While she never played sports, she watched hundreds of games including Football, Basketball, Baseball, Softball, and Volleyball supporting her husband and children.
Betty was a member of Cathedral of the Risen Christ, Star City Bettys Club, and the B&S Ladies.
She was preceded in death by her husband Ken, parents, sister Rachel, and Son-in-Law Tim Miers.
She is survived by her children Julie Fischer and Lisa Miers, Omaha, Mary Fischer, Lincoln, Scott Fischer, Lincoln, and Paul Fischer, Oakland, California; Grandchildren; Melissa (Tom) Ragland and Ryan (fiancé Beckie) Forrest, Omaha, and Kenny Paul Fischer, Lincoln; Great-Grandchildren Ty, James, Waylon, Tucker, and Penelope. Also survived by many nieces and nephews.
