Betty A. Fritz, age 89, of Penn Yan, NY passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, September 10th, 2017.
Betty was born in Millerton, Pennsylvania on June 30, 1928, the daughter of the late, Vern and Charlotte Adams. Betty retired from Westinghouse in Bath, NY. She was a member of the Women of the Moose Chapter 1519 of Penn Yan and a member of the Penn Yan Women's Club. She loved bowling and playing cards, especially playing a great hand of Euchre.
