Betty Lynn Zellner

January 1, 1954 - May 12, 2020

Betty Lynn Zellner, age 66, died peacefully in her bed after a long courageous battle with cancer. Her suffering is over and she is celebrating with Jesus! Betty was born January 1, 1954 in the town of Odessa, TX to Alton and Ada Pearl Thompson. She graduated from Odessa High School. Betty served Garvin County Community Living Center for 28 years. She was more than an employee, she was a friend to many and always had a smile on her face to all that came through the door. She married Mike Zellner in 1975 and had one son, Michael Zellner. They were married until his death in 1994. Betty lived for her family. Her son Michael is married to Kayla Zellner and they gave her 2 beautiful grandchildren, her “ladybug” Gabi and her “monkey” Kash. Betty loved to travel, collect recipes, and above all, she loved to read. She would curl up with a good book and her precious Lucy for hours and be perfectly content. And oh how this woman loved Pinterest!! She was known for her infectious smile and her warm heart. Betty never knew a stranger and would give you the shirt off her back if it would help in any way. She was bright, intelligent, and loved her life. In lieu of flowers, Betty requested all donations be made to the Ronald McDonald House. A memorial service for this exceptional woman will be announced soon. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers
