Betty Mary Collins, 88, of New Plymouth, Idaho passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on September 9, 2017 in Boise, Idaho. She was born November 25, 1928 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to her proud parents Earl and Grace Ralston. She was preceded in death by her parents and her four brothers Don, Richard, Harold and Joe and two sisters Fern and Faye. She is survived by her sister Linda who currently lives in Oklahoma.
Betty married Carl Collins at the age of 17 and they had a loving marriage until he passed away in October of 1992. They moved from Oklahoma to California in 1947 and lived in the Bay area for approximately 43 years until they relocated to New Plymouth, Idaho.
She has fourteen grandchildren, Andy, Daniel, Eric, Shawn, Kerrie, Becky, Jason, Jake, Josh, Jenny, Adam, Chris, Kandi and Keith.
We will miss her deeply but take great comfort knowing she has joined those that have gone before her.
