GREENBRIER — Betty L. Clay,

-

83, of Greenbrier, formerly of Little Rock went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, November 24, 2020. She was born March 30, 1937

in Ola, Ark., to the late Jim and Leslie Pitts. She was also preceded in death by her brothers, Bobby Joe Pitts, Alford Pitts, Henry Pitts, and James Pitts, and sisters, Eva John Pifer, Jesse Vann, Janice Bryant, and Thelma Butler.

Before becoming a full-time homemaker, Betty worked for Timex, and AR Egg Company among other places. She loved flowers and won several Green Thumb awards for her various yards. Betty was a fantastic cook and a hard worker, volunteeri­ng countless hours to her Church’s projects. After a massive stroke and many other health issues, Betty continued to witness and pray; she believed the Lord allowed her to live for a reason. Betty loved her husband and children, but her grandchild­ren and great-grandchild­ren stole the show!
