Betty Jo Ball Mabry

It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Betty Jo Ball Mabry.

Betty was born and raised in Ruston, to Dalton and Jettie Ball on August 15, 1937, and passed away on July 13, 2021, in Shreveport. She was a graduate of Ruston High School where she was a member of the Majorettes.

For those of you who knew her, know that she loved life and lived it to the fullest. She loved to travel and never met a stranger.

Betty is preceded in death by her father, Dalton Ball, and mother, Jettie Ball.

She is survived by her brother, Jack Ball (Betty); her seven children, Donna Bartholomew (Richard), David Johnson, Patti Wallace (Scott), Cherri Bothel (Richard), Greg Banks, Kay Turner (Jim), René Davidson (Doug); and 16 grandchildren and numerous great grandchildren who knew her as Nana.

The family will have a private Celebration of Life service at a later date.
