Bettye Jane Rolfe's Obituary

She received her well-deserved Angel wings just short of her 91st birthday. BJ was preceded in death by her husband Bill Rolfe and daughter Dawn Janet. She is survived by daughter Colleen LaPree-Cook, sons David LaPree (Tanya) and Gerald Meadors, 17 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren and 5 great-great-grandchildren! BJ was blessed with a large extended family and was loved by all those who had the good fortune to know her. It was after her retirement from Texas Instruments that BJ came into her own as a “Doll Doctor,” a craftsman who had clients from all over the country who would bring their precious heirlooms for her to restore to their previous glory. The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Wheeler Place and Hospice Plus for the loving care they gave her during her time there. A service will be held on Saturday, May 7th at 12:30 PM in the Wildwood Chapel at Restland Funeral Home, Dallas, with a graveside service immediately following.
