her BS degree in Elementary Education at Marylhurst College

in 1953. Betty was married to Eugene E. (Gene) Feltz in

December of 1952 and together they enjoyed more than 65 years

of marriage, raising 9 children along the way. Gene and Betty

engaged in an active social life and travelled extensively, often

times with family or with a group of life-long friends.

Quiet activities such as reading, completing the daily

NY Times crossword and long walks both in Portland and

at her beloved Cannon Beach were favorite pastimes for

Betty. She developed lasting and meaningful friendships

through participation in book club, bridge groups, mid-week

ski bus, Eastmoreland Golf Course "9 Holers" and 63 years

involvement at Holy Family Catholic School and Parish. Betty

loved tennis and through the years played with several groups

at Eastmoreland Racquet Club, Multnomah Athletic Club,

Berkeley and Mt Tabor Parks.

Bob and Jack, as well as infant daughter Mary, daughter

Carol (Feltz) Bluhm and daughter in-law Jeanne (dePaola)

Feltz. She is survived by husband Gene and children Dan,

Joe (Marguerite), Steve (Kim), Marianne Gunderson (Dave),

(Tom) and Diane Slaughter (Tim) and son in law Jim Bluhm.

"Grandma Betty" will be sorely missed by 20 grandchildren

and 7 great grandchildren who all love her dearly.
