Betty Marie Napier's Obituary
Betty Napier, 83, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, went to heaven November 20 after a long illness. She was born in Kansas in 1931. She attended high school in Chelsea, Oklahoma. When she was 16, Betty left school to marry her sweetheart, Babe Ruth Napier. Several years later, she studied hard and earned her GED. They lived in Phillips and Borger, Texas, for 24 years where she helped her husband run his television repair shop. After that, they moved to a farm in Bristow, Oklahoma, and later to Tulsa where Betty worked for the Tulsa Post Office for at least 15 years. Even though she worked, she was always a wonderful homemaker who took great care of her family, providing them with the warmth, love, and spiritual guidance that they needed. And hugs…lots of hugs! Betty was preceded in death by her husband, Babe, of 49 years and her grandson, Bryan Luster. She is survived by her daughters Janice Luster, Patti King and her husband Pat, Donna Miner and her husband Glenn; her son Gary and his wife Margaret; grandchildren Shelley Luster, James King, Susan (King) Kishk, Kevin and Andrea Miner, and Jenny Wimer; and great-grandchildren Matthew and Sarah Kishk and Riley King. The funeral will take place Tuesday, November 24, at 12:30 p.m. in the Floral Haven Funeral Home chapel in Broken Arrow.
