Betty was born on January 15, 1930 in Marshalltown, Iowa to Omer and Mable Hubbard. She was raised on a farm southwest of Eldora, Iowa.  She attended Goose Creek School and was a graduate of Eldora High School in 1948.

Betty worked at ACT, Riepe, Buchanan & Piper, and for Dr. Maria Conley of Conley Chiropractic.  She retired in 1995.
Betty was a friend to many and will be dearly missed.  She enjoyed feeding and watching her birds and deer, and spending time with her family, especially her great-grandsons, Liam and Eli.

Betty is survived by her daughter, Carol, son-in-law Mike Strabala, grandson Chris Strabala and his wife Tessa, great-grandsons Liam and Eli Strabala, and granddaughter Ashley Strabala.

She was preceded in death by her parents, one brother, three sisters, and former husband, James Hutchins.

A celebration of life will be held Saturday, July 9, 2016 at the American Legion in Coralville from 1-4 p.m.

Betty wished to be cremated.  A private family gathering will be planned at a later date.
