Betty (Schaefer) Wright, age 84, of Fredericktown, passed away on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at her residence surrounded by her loving family.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her son, Kevin Casey; brothers, Terry Schaefer, and Johnny Schaefer; and a sister, Karen Martin.

Later, she pursued a career at the Madison County Medical Center as a kitchen aide until her well-deserved retirement. Betty was known for her passion for collecting ceramic roosters, as well as her exceptional culinary skills, with her chicken and dumplings being a household favorite. In her leisure time, she found joy in sewing.
