Betty June Crippin, a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother,
and cherished member of her community, passed away peacefully on
December 18, 2024, at the age of 94.

Born on June 4, 1930, in Sisters, Oregon, Betty was raised as a cowgirl
in the heart of the beautiful Oregon countryside. From a young age, she
exhibited a strong spirit and a love for the Western way of life,
becoming the Sisters Rodeo Queen at just 16. Her early years were filled
with hard work, grit, and a deep connection to the land she loved.

In the 1970s, Betty relocated to Lake Havasu, where she would spend the
rest of her life. A proud member of Daughters of The American
Revolution, the Colonial Dames, the Elks, and various other
organizations. Betty was known for her kindness, generosity, and active
involvement in her community. She was a true pillar of support to
everyone who knew her, and her vibrant spirit and warmth will be missed
by all who had the privilege of calling her a friend.

Betty was the loving mother of three daughters, Crystal, June, and
Kareen, and grandmother to seven grandchildren and 10 great-
grandchildren. She leaves behind a legacy of love, strength, and
devotion to her family, who were the center of her life.

She was deeply loved by all who knew her and will be remembered for her
infectious smile, boundless energy, and unwavering love for her family
and community. Betty's passing leaves a void in the hearts of many, but
her memory will live on through the generations she touched.

Betty was a true original, and she will be so deeply missed by all.

At Betty's request, there will be no service. Her family will take her
home to Oregon.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Hospice of Havasu or The
Veteran's Thrift Store of Havasu.
