In the quiet village of Polgooth, a beacon of grace and love, Elizabeth Helen Frewen-Laton, fondly known as Betty, bid farewell to this world on Sunday, January 28, 2024, at the age of 96. As we pay tribute to Betty’s remarkable life, let us reflect on the love, legacy, and memories she leaves behind. Betty was not just a name; it was synonymous with love, warmth, and a life well-lived.
A cherished mother, Betty leaves behind a legacy of love that will echo through generations. Her passing has left a void in the hearts of her family and friends, but the memories she created are an everlasting source of comfort.
A Beloved Matriarch
Betty played the role of a beloved matriarch with grace and devotion. As the loving mother to Patricia, Selina, and Jenny, Betty’s nurturing spirit shaped the lives of her daughters. Her love extended to her grandchildren James, Peran, Daisy, Sam, Annebelle, and Tom bringing joy to every family gathering. The great-grandchildren Kensi, Tiana, Trevor, Percy, Logan, Reuben, Taylor, Ozzy, Lilia, Holly, Sophie, Zeke, and Poppy were the apples of her eye, and their laughter filled her heart with boundless happiness. Betty’s journey was one of resilience, joy, and unwavering love. From her early days in Polgooth to the milestones she achieved, Betty’s life was a tapestry woven with threads of love and laughter. Her legacy is not just a collection of years lived but a testament to the impact one person can have on the lives of many.
