Betty was born in Ludlow, MA., the daughter of Armand and Philbur (Casino) Bourbeau. She worked at Harrington Hospital for over 30 years as the switchboard operator.
Betty’s greatest joy was her family and the love and service she could provide to God. She was a spiritual teacher and with her husband Lee, was one of the founding families which started Faith Baptist Church in Southbridge. She was a fabulous cook, and all were welcome to enjoy her famous pasta and chocolate chip cookie nights.
Betty was a faithful follower of the Lord, and many lives were blessed with her fellowship and bible studies conducted at her home. She dedicated the past several years to the caregiving of her daughter Lisa who through Betty’s efforts was able to remain at home.
Her funeral service will be held Friday, April 22 at 10AM at Faith Baptist Church 515 Dennison Drive Southbridge (Please go directly to the church). Burial will follow at Oak Ridge Cemetery in Southbridge.
