She was the oldest of five children born on August 16th, 1949, to the parentage of the late Fannie Washington Satcher, and George Satcher, Sr. of Milledgeville, Baldwin County.

Betty retired with Central State Hospital after 30 years of faithful service. “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you.” John 14:27 Beattie regular attended Friendship Baptist Church and was a member of his SoC. Bet it would say, “Nothing like good preaching and good fellowship”. Baby love to cook and entertain family and friends. She enjoyed a good time filled with writing and looking and shopping. Eating and enjoying a good conversation. She enjoyed watching her favorite reality television showed. She would ask, did you watch that show last night? They need to stop. What you say? Next week work.
