HANOVER CHAPEL Let Us Pause To Honor the Memory of Mrs. Bettie J. Scudder Page Mrs. Bettie J. Scudder Page, age 87, of Lexington, Indiana entered this life on August 6, 1933 in Jefferson County, Indiana. She was the loving daughter of the late Francis M. and Hazel L. Sullivan Scudder. She resided her early life in Switzerland County and the family later moved to Jefferson County and a short time to Jennings County where she was a high school cheerleader. She was a 1952 graduate of North Madison High School where she met and maintained friends over her life-time. On April 4, 1953 Bettie was united in marriage to Robert "Button" Edward Page in Carrollton, Kentucky. This happy union of 67 years was blessed with sons, Ted, Mike and Rick. She was a loving wife, devoted mom and mama. She worked early in life babysitting, then for Southwestern Elementary School in the cafeteria for five years. Bettie then became a housekeeper for the Phi Mu Sorority House at Hanover College a job she dearly loved for 27 years. After she retired she needed to be busy so she helped as a caregiver to the elderly for several years. She was a faithful member of the Kent Christian Church in Kent, Indiana as long as her health permitted. She loved gardening, her dogs, her cows, really just about any animal she was fond of, playing Euchre, playing church softball up into her late fifties, watching the Cincinnati Reds, IU Basketball especially when Bob Knight was the coach, and cheering for the Southwestern Rebels was a must. Bettie always had a precious smile and a gracious nature and will be greatly missed. Bettie died on Sunday, November 15, 2020, at 2:02 p.m. at the Hanover Health & Rehab Center in Hanover, Indiana.
