Betty Jean Graham Foley was born July 29, 1931, to John William Graham and Wilma Iona Ackley of Union County, Iowa. Betty joined in holy matrimony with Jack Dwane Foley on July 26, 1949, in Texhoma, Oklahoma at the age of eighteen. One son, Larry Dwane Foley was born from this union. She completed the ninth grade at Arispe Elementary School in Afton, IA and went on to receive her GED. She worked at various jobs until her retirement in 1996. In school, She loved to draw pictures of birds. She had a lifelong love for Cardinals and Hummingbirds. She had a hummingbird feeder hanging outside her window and would sit for hours watching them as they would sip the "sugar water" that her friend John made sure was always full. Betty loved her church family and was a member of Faith Tabernacle Church of God in Christ for over 26 years under the leadership of Bishop MD Eppright. She was fondly referred to as "Mother" and highly revered as the Church Mother and Prayer Warrior. For many years, Betty also faithfully served in the preparation of Communion, preparing the table and administering the Holy Sacrament, and was always faithful in attending Weekly Bible Study. No job was too small. She served in the kitchen, cleaned every area of the Church, and supported church sponsored programs and community events. She loved caring for the plants and flowers. Mother Foley will be remembered for her patience, kindness, willingness to listen, gentle guidance, evenness of temperament, calm and soothing demeanor and generosity. Her presence will be deeply missed. Betty was preceded in death by her parents, John William Graham and Wilma Iona Ackley; husband, Jack Dwane Foley; son, Larry Dwayne Foley; and sisters, Zelda Foley and Helen Schofield. She will be laid to rest beside her son, Larry Dwayne Foley, at Greenlawn Cemetery in Afton.
