Betty Lou Stewart, 71

June 18, 2021

Betty Lou Stewart, 71, of Lancaster passed away on July 18, 2021 at Lancashire Hall. Born in Baltimore, MD, she was the daughter of the late Howard Foultz and Pauline (Phillips) Helmick and wife of the late Donald C. Stewart who passed in 2007.

Betty was a CNA and a home health aide by trade but she was a caregiver by heart. “Aunt Betty” was the dedicated babysitter and spoiled all the kids in her family. She was an amazing cook and took pride in her home. Betty loved horror films, playing Nintendo, and butterflies, which were all over her house.

Betty was loud and told it like it is with very little filter, but with her feisty spirit came a zest for life. She always had a smile on her face and was there for you whenever you needed her.

She will be deeply missed by her daughter Trinda Stewart, who was her pride and joy, a step-mother Ethel Foultz, 11 siblings, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and a large loving extended family. In addition to her parents and husband, she is preceded in death by 2 siblings and her beloved dog, Max.

A Memorial Service will be held Saturday, July 10, 2021 at 9:00am at Living Hope Community Church, 2823 Columbia Ave, Lancaster, PA 17603.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital at https://www.stjude.org/donate/ or an animal charity of your choice.

Condolences to the Family

July 04, 2021

All of my love & condolences to Betty’s family. Betty always considered me to be her sister. We loved, protected & yes, even fought sometimes, but the love of our friendship always made us find our way back to each other. I am so blessed that I got to spend her last birthday with her! I will miss her greatly. Thank you Trinda for reminding me that Betty always loved the saying ” if you love someone set them free, if they come back they are yours, if they don’t then they never were” I know in Betty’s heart she truly believed & loved the lord, as I know he welcomed her home with open arms.
