Betty was born in Galena, KS on December 10, 1931. She was the 4th of 5 children born to Howard Geisler and Enice Okle Barnard Geisler. Betty was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Phil Geisler, sisters, Juanita Darnell, Bonnie Pflug, and Ginger Wade. Betty married Leslie Dee Stukey in 1948. They had 2 sons, Larry and Gary Stukey. Their family moved from Carl Junction, MO to Nederland, TX in 1961. Dee passed away in 1974.
Betty married C.J. Fogleman in 1979. She moved to Kemp, TX in 1981. Betty loved their place in Kemp. She loved to work outdoors. She mowed and planted flower gardens. She kept the property looking beautiful. Betty loved her family, and she enjoyed having the grandkids come to see her. She also loved cooking for family. There was always a wonderful meal on the table. The grandkids all have a multitude of “Nanny” stories. These stories always bring smiles and laughter to every family gathering. More than all these things, she loved her Lord. We have the blessed assurance that she is with Him now. Christ’s words give us hope and comfort.
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in Me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.” John 14:1-3
