It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Betty Jean Tiller (Grimes), who departed this world on May 29th, 2025, at the age of 90.
Betty Jean Tiller (Grimes) lived a life full of love, laughter, and meaning. Her journey began on August 8th, 1934, in Goosepond, Georgia, and throughout her 90 years, she brought warmth and joy to everyone around her. Betty’s legacy is one of dedication to her family and the countless ways she made the world a better place just by being in it. From her wise words to her acts of kindness, she left an unforgettable mark on those lucky enough to know her.
Betty is survived by her daughters, Brenda Hayes (Robert Hayes), Cindy Pulgarin (John Sager), son-in-law Dennis Hayes, along with 5 grandchildren, 3 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great-grandchild. She is preceded in death by her daughter, Linda Gail Hayes.
Betty’s vibrant presence will be deeply missed, but her love and legacy will endure. As we say goodbye, we hold onto the moments shared and the lessons learned from a life well-lived.
Rest in peace, Betty. You will forever be remembered and cherished.
