When she had some time for herself, you could always find her down at Judy's doing ceramics or uptown at the Library playing cards. DJ loved the holidays, she had decorations for every holiday on the calendar. Christmas was extremely jolly time for her, so jolly in fact we had to get two Christmas trees to hold all the decorations, and we were working on a third tree. DJ was very active in the church, leading praise songs, teaching Sunday school and working at Vacation Bible School. She relished her relationship with God, and wasn't afraid to show it. She was a very outgoing individual who brought much joy and positive energy to everyone's life, she will be greatly missed. She is survived by her husband, Loren of Alexander, daughters Pamela (Chris Rizzo) Betz and Sarah Betz of Wilmington, North Carolina, and many cousins, friends and two God sons. DJ was preceded in death by her parents and brother Charles Frederick. Memorial may be directed to First Reformed Church in Alexander, Alexander Library or Cancer Research.
