VIRGINIA BEACH - Elizabeth "Betty" Carpenter, 75, went to be with the Lord our God April 30, 2007. Betty passed in her Virginia Beach home surrounded by her family.
Betty was a tremendous supporting asset to her church family as a Sunday school teacher and/or director for almost 20 years at Burrows Memorial Baptist Church.

She also leaves behind a daughter-in-law, Melissa Carpenter and a sister-in-law, Betty Foreman along with her nephews, Dr. John Foreman, Roy Foreman and Dan Foreman and their loving spouses.
Betty touched so many lives that floods of people have called to remark on her giving and loving nature and strong Christian faith. She loved to walk, bowl and attend her retired members functions.
