Betty Romaine Craley, 95, of Elkton, MD passed away on Sunday, April 6, 2025. Born in Brogue, PA on March 22, 1930, she was the daughter of the late George and Sarah Keeports Craley.

Betty retired after many years of dedicated service as a keypunch operator at Red Lion Senior High School in Red Lion, PA. She also spent many years as a Sunday school teacher at Bethel United Methodist Church in Brogue, PA. Her faith and commitment to serving others were evident in all that she did, and she touched many lives through her teaching and guidance.

In her younger years, she enjoyed riding horses and had a deep appreciation for nature. She loved going on nature walks with her family, marveling at the beauty around her.
