Betty Jo Green Reagan peacefully passed into Heaven Aug. 6, 2023 at the age of 87. She was

a sweet-spirited, loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and devout

Christian. She and her husband, William “Bill” Crawford Reagan of 57 years loved camping,

traveling, and spending time with their family.

Known as Memaw, Betty treasured her family: children including Connie, Laura and

husband Bob, Tommy and wife Paula, and Keith and wife Lisa; grandchildren including Billy

and wife Leann, Jamie, Christie, and Kathy; and great-grandchildren including Dalton,

Kyleigh, Parker, Juliet, and Kaylee.

She loved being called “mom” or “Miss Betty” by the extended family of children and even

adults who were part of her life through church, work, and softball.

Betty was an active member of Lavon Drive Baptist Church, Eastern Hills Baptist Church,

and First Baptist Church of Sachse where she served in the nursery, Vacation Bible School,

and GA’s. She loved serving the Lord and everyone she encountered. She was also active in

her children’s lives serving as a Blue Birds leader and through the PTA.

While running the M.G. (Jerry) Carter, Sr. Softball Complex Concession Stand with Bill, she

rewarded Umpires, Scorekeepers and City of Garland Parks staff with her recipes like

ReaganAde, Sweet Iced Tea, and Banana Pudding. During National USSSA softball

tournaments, which were hosted at the Carter Softball Complex, players from across the

nation always asked for her Frito Pie and ReaganAde. At home, her vast collection of

cherished recipes will live on and be enjoyed by current and future generations.

Friends and family are invited to attend a viewing Thursday evening, Aug. 10, 2023, from 5-

7 p.m. at Eastgate Funeral Home, 1910 Eastgate Drive, Garland, TX.

A private graveside service will be held in the Colonial Gardens Cemetery in Marshall, Texas.
