Betty Hammond
February 4, 1946 — June 29, 2022
Our cherished sister, aunt, and friend, Betty Hammond, passed away on June 29, 2022, after complications of a brief illness.
Betty was born in Logan on February 4, 1946 to Datus Miller Hammond and Emily Merrill.
In her early years, she lived in Logan and attended BYU and received her Bachelor's degree in piano performance and English. She then attended BYU and received her Master's degree in vocal performance. After attending BYU, Betty was called to the Brazil Sao Paulo LDS mission and served there faithfully.
She taught for years as adjunct faculty with the USU music department. She has been the featured soloist in many events and productions, and has had leading roles in many musicals and operas. Betty was talented in so many areas, she could sing and accompany herself on any piece of music. She was also a gifted teacher, writer, and editor.
As a girl, she loved nature, hiking, and climbing trees. She loved children. She didn't have children, but loved her nieces and nephews as her own. Betty was so kind, compassionate, and generous. She treated everyone like family and was so generous with her time, talents and finances.
She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and held many callings, her latest being Relief Society President of Terrace Grove Assisted Living Center. She had a strong testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ and wouldn't hesitate to share her feelings about it to anyone she knew.
Most recently, Betty enjoyed her time as a real estate agent at ERA Advantage Realty and also sold senior insurance.
Betty was preceded in death by her parents, Datus Miller Hammond and Emily Merrill. She is survived by her four sisters, Marie Vaughan, Louise (Fred) Bassett, Marilyn Hammond, and Carol (Mike) Bailey. Betty is survived by a multitude of family and friends who loved her dearly and appreciate her contribution to their lives. She will be greatly missed.
Her viewing will be held Tuesday, July 5th, at Allen-Hall Mortuary from 10:30-11:30 AM, followed by the funeral at noon. Graveside services will be at the Richmond Cemetery following the funeral.
