Betty Louise (Fox) Fesler 81, passed peacefully in her home in Hutchinson, Kansas on December 5, 2022. She was born on December 3, 1941, in Erie, Kansas to Francis Matthew Fox and Ruth Louise (Carson) Fox.

She graduated from Hutchinson High School and Hutchinson Community Junior College.

She worked at Hutchinson National Bank for many years and later at Horizons Mental Health Center.

Her son Ron Fesler and his wife Christina, her daughter Deborah, and her husband Thad Kosse. Betty is preceded in death by her parents and two brothers, Kenneth and John.

Betty was a devoted Catholic and mother. She loved spending time with her rescue pups Puck and Skeeter. Betty was an avid gardener and was known for her green thumb.

The simple things made Betty happy, a good steak, her pups, onion rings from the Airport restaurant, her friends and family, but most importantly her kids.
