Betty Edwards, 83, Snyder went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, February 12, 2020 in Wichita Falls, Texas.  She passed away on her birthday.  She was born February 12, 1937 in Caddo, Oklahoma to Carl and Stella (Prater) Nix.  She was one of nine children.  She attended school at Boggy Depot, Oklahoma and was a lifelong resident of the Snyder area.  She married Ralph Kilgore on August 22, 1966.  He passed away May 22, 1982.  She then married Lloyd Edwards.  He also preceded her in death. Betty loved to talk and visit friends and neighbors.  She dearly loved her family, especially her grandkids, nieces and nephews.
