Betty May Oliver of Red Deer, Alberta passed away at the Bethany CollegeSide care home on August 31, 2021 at the age of 86 years.

Betty was born in 1935 in Lethbridge, Alberta. Growing up in Lethbridge, she was a very active girl. She swam, hiked, biked, sang in a choir, and attended the local YMCA.

In Red Deer, Betty worked as a unit secretary at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre. She joined the local hiking club and the Boys and Girls Club. She attended the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Sylvan Lake. She was no longer able to work after suffering a stroke in 1994.
