Betty Ann e Marr, 90, of Warrensburg, Missouri passed away Thursday, April 28, 2022 surrounded by her loving family in Warrensburg.

Betty was born April 8, 1932, in Laverne, Oklahoma, the daughter of Jess Bradshaw and Myrtle ( Griffis ) Bradshaw. She graduated from Warrensburg High School with her sister Doris in 1949 and was united in marriage to Luther ("Luke") M. Marr on May 9, 1953, in Warrensburg.

She was a lifetime member of American Legion Auxiliary, as well as a member of the First Presbyterian Church, Western Missouri Medical Center Auxiliary, and Johnson County Historical Society.
