SOUTHPORT — Bettye Jean Warren Stultz, 83, passed away on Thursday, September 15th, 2022.
Bettye was born March 3, 1939 in Elkin, North Carolina. For the last 15 years, she called Oak Island and Southport her home. She claimed North Carolina as her home state and also lived in Louisiana, Florida, and grew up in Maryland.
Bettye was predeceased by her loving children Robert Harper and Karen Merando. She is survived by her special friend Bill Walker, her son Glenn Dale Harper, Jr., and granddaughter Samantha Blair (husband James), and great grandchildren Dallas (2) and Sahara Blair (2 months).
Bettye cherished her friendships — she always said she was blessed with true, kind, loving and loyal friends.
Bettye believed that God loves us all and has plans for our lives.
Her wit was unmatched and her smile infectious. She was an encourager. She devoted her time through the years to helping others. Journaling, writing notes and letters were her way of sharing good news. Her life was colorful, adventurous, and full of love
A memorial service will be held at 11:00 am on Tuesday, October 18, 2022 at Saint Peter Evangelical Lutheran Church in Southport.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the SOIICF Food Pantry, 249 W. Boiling Springs Road in Southport.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared with the Stultz and Warren families here.
