Betty D. Dorris

Betty was born in Norfolk, Virginia on June 1, 1940.  Betty was 85 when she passed into the arms of her savior on May 22, 2026. Betty loved life and traveled to many foreign countries during her lifetime, with Africa being one place she would tell stories about listening to the lions roaring at night while she was in her hotel room.  The place she enjoyed living most of all was the mountains of Georgia.

Betty was a very beautiful and artistic lady, and she enjoyed crafting and donating her crafts to thrift stores that help animals.  She also painted, crocheted, and quilted many blankets.

Betty is survived by her sister, Virginia DeHaven, of Columbia, SC; brother, Ellis DeHaven, of Aiken, SC; niece, Sharon Welch (Bobby), of Jacksonville, FL; Angela Miller, of Irmo, SC; and numerous nieces and nephews. She is also survived by her dear friend, James Williams, of Columbia, SC.

She was predeceased by her mother, Angeline DeHaven, and great-nephew, Bobby Welch, Jr.

Crevasse’s Simple Cremation is honored to serve the Dorris family.
