Little Chute - Elizabeth "Betty" Baeten, age 85, died peacefully March 6, 2022 at Thedacare Regional Medical Center surrounded by family. Born August 1, 1936, in Little Chute, where she lived most of her life, the daughter of the late Jacob and Henrietta (De Werd) Van Boxtel. Betty is a 1954 graduate of St. John's High School. On May 5, 1956, she married Harold "Harky" Baeten of Wrightstown. He preceded her in death on January 19, 2004. "Betts" as Harky, her husband of 49 years would call her was the love of his life. Betty was considered the "rock" of the family. Her house was the "homestead" where all would gather or drop-in anytime to relive fun-filled family memories and also stories from generations past.

She was an avid bingo player and occasionally enjoyed a slot machine or two. She enjoyed the many fishing trips to Canada and Minnesota, and her travels with friends and relatives, especially to Lake Tahoe, New Mexico and the East coast. In her younger years her hobbies were reupholstering and staining furniture, bowling, golf, and her women's and couple's card club. She greatly enjoyed get-togethers with her family and friends and especially the time spent with her grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. She was admired by the people she met, and some loyal customers from her 10-year employment at Gunderson Cleaners kept in touch for many years after her retirement. She will be truly missed by many.
