Betty Ann Milner

Betty Anne Wostal Milner, 87 ascended to heaven on May 16, 2024 surrounded by family. She was born on August 23, 1936 to Felix and Hazel Wostal. 

Betty had a love for everyone in her family, but the babies held a special place in her heart. She spent her life caring and loving her family. She made everyone feel special and cared for. She didn’t have many hobbies, but the one that sticks out is her ability to crochet. She always said that because of her husband is the reason she loved football, but she made sure to watch every game as if it was the last one to ever be played. She enjoyed working in her gardens and watching her plants take off and grow. She loved to dance her way around Texas with her husband and children.  She worked multiple jobs throughout her life and they varied from being a cashier at a grocery store, pharmacy, and an office supply store to  being a telephone operator at a hospital.

Betty Ann was greeted in heaven by her husband of 53 years Jerry, her son Jimmy Milner, her daughter Jill Livingston, her brother Clinton Wostal, and both of her parents Felix and Hazel Wostal. 

She is survived by her daughter Jackie (Tim) Kilpatrick, her grandchildren James (Jennifer) Davis, Lori Davis, Wendy (JD) Seaney, April (April) Milner, Daryl Livingston, Andrea Milner, and Amanda Milner.
