Elizabeth Ann Frank was born on October 28, 1926 in Hutchinson, Kansas, one of three children born to Paul and Elizabeth Weiss. She attended school at Hutchinson High School.

On November 25, 1944, Elizabeth and Forest Arnold Frank were united in marriage in California. The couple made Des Moines, Iowa their home following their marriage. Forest’s occupation required them to relocate to Ottumwa, Sioux City, Kingsley, Remsen and Correctionville, Iowa. After her children were raised, Betty worked part-time at local grocery stores and at Zenith in Sioux City. In her spare time she enjoyed quilting, sewing and crocheting.

She will be lovingly remembered by her daughter, Jennis Henshaw of Moville, IA; a son, Douglas Frank of Correctionville, IA; two grandchildren Shanna Barton and her husband Richard of Moville, IA and Brian Henshaw of Atlantic, IA; a great-grandson Tom Barton of Moville, IA; and a sister Mary Rohr of Hutchinson, KS.

Elizabeth was preceded in death by her parents; husband Forest; a son Thomas Frank; and a brother-in-law Frank Rohr.
