Betty was born July 23, 1922 in Ellensburg, Washington to George and Willa Friend, Kittitas County pioneers . She was the eldest of three girls, Catherine Gregory Monacelli of Ellensburg and Willa Lipsey of Sheridan, Montana. After graduating from Ellensburg High School she worked as a secretary at Washington Elementary and Ellensburg High Schools. She married Sidney Gerald "Gerry" Dodge November 6, 1941. Betty and Gerry farmed in the Thrall-Denmark area of the Kittitas Valley raising various livestock, a variety of crops and their four children; Jeri Hamilton (Edmonds), Bob Dodge, Tish Dodge, Tom (Kathy) Dodge all of Ellensburg. Seven Grandchildren: Rylan Dodge, Jeralyn Dodge, Carly Dodge, Jason Jongeward, Sara Jongeward, Amy Jongeward and Mitch Stampfly and three Great Grandchildren; Tommy, Lizzy and Nathan. She was preceded in death by her husband Gerry in 2001. Betty cherished her home on the hill overlooking the Kittitas Valley and its seasonal changes. She created a yard with a bountiful garden and beautiful flowers-the roses being her pride and joy. She took great pleasure in sharing what she'd grown with others as little acts of kindness. In addition she raised, processed and marketed fryer chickens and sold eggs. She was always "at the ready" to take on any challenges of the day and always with a smile. The kitchen was her hub welcoming all the aromas of her love of cooking, preserving and baking. The cookie jar was always filled with smiley cookies. Many happy memories remain of times shared together at Betty's kitchen table. In her earlier years she was involved as a 4-H leader, a census taker, election day polltaker for Denmark District, 4-K Badger Pocket Home Ec Club, Denmark Farm Bureau, planning and organizing with high school reunion mates and working on the Kittitas County Centennial history book. In later years Betty enjoyed golfing with the Ladies' Nine-Holers at the Ellensburg Golf Club. The Dodge Family would like to thank all who visited and sent the many loving cards to Betty during her years of care in Edmonds. She so cherished them. Special thanks to Rodica for her tender loving 24/7 care at her adult family home. Also, thank you to all her other caretakers along the way. A memorial service and celebration of life will be held at the Clymer Museum of Art (416 N. Pearl St. Ellensburg, WA) on Saturday, January 28th at 3:30pm. Steward & Williams Tribute Center is in charge of the funeral arrangements.
