Betty J. Madill
March 12, 1931 — April 1, 2020
Betty J. Madill, age 89, formerly of Iola, Kansas, passed away on Wednesday, April 1, 2020, in Edmond, Oklahoma.
Betty was born on March 12, 1931 to Charles S. and Lula Bernice (Cooper) Bair, on a farm east of Iola, Kansas. She grew up in Iola and attended country school. She married Ralph J. Madill on April 21, 1957 in Marysville, Kansas. This union was blessed with two daughters.
Betty’s great love in life was her family. Growing up the youngest of her siblings, she had an extremely special bond with her five sisters and one brother. Into adulthood every weekend was spent with a Bair family gathering. They loved to laugh, dance, cook and truly treasured one another’s company. This closeness carried into her role as wife, mother and grandmother. Betty loved to have everyone together under one roof and there was no better host. With her selfless nature she was the heart and soul of the family, she took care of us all.
Everyone who knew Betty was better because of it. She brought joy to others with kindness and grace.
She was preceded in death by her parents; four sisters, Francis Perkins and husband, Ted, Mable Wemmer and husband, Fred, Pauline Swinney and husband, Lowell, Maxine Garver and husband, Junior, and one infant brother.
Betty is survived by her husband, Ralph of the home; two daughters, Pamela Link and husband, Michael of Edmond, Oklahoma, Darla O’Neill and husband, Gary of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; four grandchildren, Grant Link of Edmond, Oklahoma, Mallory O’Neill, Morgan Miller and husband, Kyle, and Adam O’Neill, all of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; one sister, Lula Bell Smith and husband, Altie of Iola, Kansas; and one brother, Charles Bair and wife, Doris of Cortez, Colorado.
Private family services will be held on Wednesday, April 8, 2020. Burial will follow in the Highland Cemetery, Iola, Kansas. Feuerborn Family Funeral Service, 1883 US Hwy. 54, Iola, KS 66749 assisted the family with arrangements.
