She was a loving Grandmother to Wilson and Riley Burton-Fox. Bette moved throughout Canada early in adulthood and settled in Toronto were she had a long career with the Federal Government. She enjoyed her retirement and was always on the go. She loved being around people, friends, teammates and strangers alike. Bette and Jim enjoyed being up at their summer home in Buckhorn for over 25 years, always traveling about in one of Jim’s boats. Their falls and winters were filled with curling at the East York Curling Club. Bette was an avid curler, a love that she has passed along to her grandsons at early age. They are both still curling today. After Jim’s passing; Bette’s passion for travel continued to grow. She cruised the world with friends and alone. No matter where she was she made new friends along the way.
