Betty Jane Childers

Betty Jane Childers, age 79, of Jasper, Georgia, in the Jerusalem Community, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at Jasper Point Nursing Home.

Born on May 5, 1947, in Pickens County, Georgia, Betty was the beloved daughter of the late Oliver and Jane Chastain Mulkey.

Betty's greatest joy in life was her family. She was known for her loving heart, warm hospitality, and the care she showed to those around her. She enjoyed cheering on her beloved Georgia Bulldogs, preparing meals for family and friends, and creating beautiful quilts that reflected her patience and creativity. In quieter moments, she could often be found enjoying her favorite television program, Murder, She Wrote.

She leaves behind to cherish her memory her daughter, Marilyn Childers; her son, Scotty Childers; her nephew and his wife, Kennie and Janet Childers; her niece and her husband, Gayle and Arnold Payne; her niece, Charlotte Arnold; Billy Fitzgerald; and the many adopted family members and dear friends she made during her time at Jasper Point Nursing Home.

In accordance with Betty's wishes, the family held  a graveside service at Sunrise Memorial Gardens.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the staff and residents of Jasper Point Nursing Home for the love, care, compassion, and friendship shown to Betty and her family during this difficult time. Your support and kindness will never be forgotten.

"To all the staff and patients who helped us through the most difficult time in our lives and were always there for us, we love you all. Thank you."

With love and appreciation,Scotty and Marilyn Childers
