Betty Jane Way, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend, passed away Monday, January 10, 2022, surrounded by love in Kerrville, TX. She was 90 years old. She was born in Kerrville to William “Bill” and Nettie (McGee) Morris, where she lived and grew in family and faith. She later married the love of her life, Kenneth “KJ” Way on September 21, 1946 in Snyder, TX.

Although Betty was the supervisor at Alpine Terrace for more than fifteen years, she is most well known for her open door, open arms, and Sunday lunches. Sunday lunch was a staple in our lives, not only to family but to all others she treated as family. There was always room at her table. She was the most amazing Wife, Mother, Momo, Gumball, and Grandma the world has ever known. Her faith and grace were evident for all to see in her words and actions. She loved God and her family above all else.

Betty was preceded in death by her husband, parents, stepmother, granddaughter, Jimmie Michelle, and numerous nieces and nephews. She is survived by her children, Sylvia Jane Way, Kathy Gail McGehee (Cecil), Twila Yvonne Rotge (Ronny), Bonnie Jean Crider (Jimmy); grandchildren, Buddy McGehee (Susan), Tammy McGehee, Scott Rotge (Brooke), Christi Massey (Tojo), Sean Rotge (Karen); five great grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
