Betty Jean Cowart, 74, passed Wednesday, July 05, 2023 in Harrisburg.
She was born Sunday, June 26, 1949 in Albany, Georgia to Almond and Lula (Bell) Wallace.
Betty was educated in the Dougherty County School System, Georgia.
She married the love-of-her-life: Sanford "Bay Boy" Cowart.
Betty retired from Dauphin County Nursing Home, Harrisburg.
She was a very special lady with a beautiful smile.
Never one to complain, Betty enjoyed life and said what she meant and meant what she said.
She loved traveling to Georgia to visit her sister-in-law: Florine.
Betty loved to cook and her potato salad was enjoyed and talked about by many.
Everyone looked forward to the bus trips she hosted to Atlantic City - which included a delicious meal - as she enjoyed going to the casinos with her crew.
Betty was known to ask: "Did you check on "Boobie?" and "Have you seen that damn Dwayne?"
More importantly, her greatest joy was leading her family to know and understand God and God alone is the only one we are accountable to in the long run.
In addition to her parents, Betty was preceded in death by her husband: Sanford "Bay Boy" Cowart; her son: Eric "Spank" Cowart; her sisters: Joann, Christine, and Wyvonia; her twin brother: Bobby; her brothers: Albert, Jimmy, and Walter; and, her grandparents: John and Hattie Lanier.
She is survived by her granddaughters: Ericka Cowart and Erica Turner; her grandson: Eric Turner; her great-granddaughters: Dmiere and Erin; her great-grandsons: Rashaad, Marquis, and Yuri; her sisters: Delores (Calvin) Brown, Patricia (Tyrone) Hills; her brothers: Tommy (Rosalind) Chatman and Larry; her sister-in-law: Florine Thomas; her brother-in-law: Ellis Mills; her niece: Melissa "Duck" Alexander; her nieces and nephews; her other family members; and, her friends.
