Betty E. Bates Obituary
We are sad to announce that on May 21, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Betty E. Bates of McDonough, Georgia. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Betty E. Bates to show support.
As Betty departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Betty may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Betty leaves behind.
She is survived by: her children, Vincent Bates (Janice), Ronald Bates and Carolyn Wells. She is also survived by seventeen grandchildren; fourteen great grandchildren; a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and friends.
