Betty J. Keeton

Betty J. Keeton, 81, of Church Road, Virginia, was called home to God on Thursday, April 17, 2025. Born in North Carolina on February 8, 1944, she was the daughter of the late Raymond and Jane Johnson. She lived in Hopewell until 1986, and then moved to Church Road Dinwiddie County.

Betty had a deep love for animals, especially her beloved dogs, Toby and Sophie, and held a special place in her heart for horses.

Betty cherished the quiet comforts of home and the simple pleasures of life, always finding contentment in the little things.

She is survived by her daughters, Tammy Grant and Dawn Garrett and husband, Maury; grandchildren, Amanda Conner and husband, Nathan, Jordan Walters and husband, Tyler, and Cole Garrett; great-grandchildren, Sylvia Conner and Tatum Walters; and other extended family members.
