Elizabeth Van Cleve, 69

Betsy was born on Sept. 22, 1949. She grew up in Austin, Minnesota, and graduated from Austin High School in 1967. In the 1970s, she moved to Salem, where she worked for the State of Oregon until her retirement in 2004.

She enjoyed being in the great outdoors, travel, and her many wonderful friends.

Betsy is survived by her brother, Ed Van Cleve of Austin.

Instead of a service, Betsy would prefer that friends share a meal together and reminisce. Donations in Betsy’s memory may be directed to the Audubon Society or the American Cancer Society. Assisting the family is Virgil T. Golden Funeral Service of Salem.
