Obituary of Betty Jean Wollney

Betty Jean Wollney, 74, passed away Tuesday, January 31, 2017. She is preceded in death by her parents, Joseph and Annie Bonewitz; her loving husband of 53 years, Norbert Wollney Sr.; and brother, Joey Bonewitz. Betty is survived by sons, Norbert “Bert” Wollney, Jr. and wife, Rene, Robert Wollney and wife, Lauri; daughter, Pamela Walston and husband, John; brother, Bill Bonewitz and wife, Dorothy; sister, Annie Halbardier; grandchildren, Crystal Peters and husband, Chris, Lindsey Walston, Mark Walston, Glen Wollney, Caitlin Wollney, Saydi Wollney and Robin Wollney; great grandson, Weston Wayne Peters; and a host of other family and friends. Betty was the matriarch of the family and found great comfort in all her children, grandchildren and great grandson. She was especially excited at the news that a new great granddaughter was on the way. Betty loved dancing with Norbert and missed him dearly after his passing. Most people considered her an introvert but her family saw a much different side of her that was full of life. Betty loved going to the ball fields to watch her grandchildren play ball. She enjoyed playing dominoes and canasta with friends and family. Betty will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
