Betty Zeller

Elizabeth "Betty" Zeller, 88, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away peacefully on July 5th, 2026 surrounded by her family.

Born on November 25th, 1937, Betty leaves behind her devoted husband, Bob with whom she shared 69 wonderful years of marriage. Together they built a life centered on love, family, and unwavering faith. Their marriage was a testament to commitment, grace, and God's enduring blessings.

Betty was the loving mother of three children, Warren (Bernadette) Zeller of Harrisonville, Frank (Brenda) Zeller of Lee’s Summit, and Marcia (Paul) Sprigg of Boonville. She was a cherished grandmother of five, Chris (Gentrie) Zeller, Jessica (Jesse Roades), Morgan Sprigg (Mitchell Roarks), Ryan Sprigg (Jaelyn Udy), and Gage Sprigg. Betty was a proud great grandmother to Cade, Blayne, and Coy Zeller and Kennisyn Roades. One of Betty’s greatest joys was spending time with her family, celebrating life's milestones, and creating lasting memories with each generation.

Betty's life was marked by a deep devotion to Christ. Her faith guided her daily life and was reflected in her kindness, compassion, generosity, and quiet strength. She found joy in worship, prayer, and serving others, offering encouragement and love to everyone she met.

An accomplished quilter, Betty expressed her creativity and care through every stitch. The quilts she lovingly crafted became treasured gifts, wrapping family and friends in warmth and serving as lasting reminders of her love. Her precision and desire for perfection were evident in the quality of her quilts as well as everything thing she did.

Betty is survived by her husband Bob; her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and her siblings: Bill Lang, Jeanette Thomas, Don (Janice) Lang and Mike (Kathy) Lang and many extended family members and dear friends whose lives were blessed by knowing her. She was preceded in death by her parents Bill and Margaret Lang, brother Kenny Lang, and sister Isabel Stoecklein.

Her life was a beautiful reflection of faith, love, and dedication to family, and her legacy will continue in the hearts of those she leaves behind.
