She met and later married the love of her life, Jack Wayne Rountree Sr. in Del Rio on August 26, 1966. They have been happily married for almost 51 years. If you asked her of her greatest achievement, she would easily tell you it's her family. Her daughter, Kirsten Rountree Garza, and her husband, Jerry Garza, live in Fort Worth, Texas. Her son, Jack Wayne Rountree Jr., and his wife, Johanna Urena, reside in San Antonio, Texas. Betty was a loving, faithful wife and the absolute best mother/grandmother that anyone could ever ask for.She enjoyed collecting antiques and worked many years as owner and operator of her local antique store, Betty's Bygones. Later in life she was blessed with three grandchildren. Damian Garza, Carolina Garza and Mia Rountree Urena. They were her greatest gifts and the light of her life. She will be sorely missed and will forever remain in the hearts of all that loved her.
