With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Elizabeth Anne “Betzi” Kohrt, who left this world on February 25, 2025, just shy of her 63rd birthday. Betzi was a beloved daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend whose warmth, kindness, and unwavering spirit touched all who knew her.
Born on March 24, 1962, Betzi spent much of her life in Elkhart, Indiana, where she raised her children with love and devotion. Once her children were grown, she embraced a new chapter in Princeton, Iowa, where she continued to build a life filled with laughter, friendship, and the simple joys she cherished.
A woman of many talents, Betzi was an incredibly gifted seamstress, creating beautiful pieces with skill and love. Whether stitching a garment or crafting something special for a loved one, her work reflected the care she put into everything she did. She was also an amazing cook, known for making meals that nourished both the body and the soul.
Above all, Betzi was a devoted Christian whose faith guided her throughout her life. She had a remarkable ability to see the blessings in every situation, offering wisdom and encouragement to those around her. No matter the challenges she faced, she approached life with grace, gratitude, and an unshakable belief in God’s love.
Betzi is survived by her children, Annabeth Head, Nathan Head, and Nicole Kohrt, as well as her beloved granddaughter, Emma Jean. She is also survived by her three siblings, Julie Kohrt, Kevin Kohrt, and Rick Kohrt.
She was preceded in death by her loving parents, Charlene Kohrt and Frederick W. Kohrt III.
A celebration of life will be held on March 22, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Boll’s Community Center in Princeton, Iowa. The gathering will be very casual, allowing family and friends to come together, share memories, and honor her beautiful spirit.
