Betty Sue Colson, 79

Betty Sue Colson, 79, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, died April 17, 2016. She was born Oct. 1, 1936, in Pelsor, Ark.

She is survived by her two sons, Teddy Lee Colson and Patsy Gomez of Hemet, Calif., and Craig and Pam Colson of Vancouver, Wash.; and two sisters, Helen Mitchell and Wilma Dorton. Betty was preceded in death by her husband of 48 years, Ted Colson and her sister, Pennee Fisher.

Betty’s service will be held at 1 p.m. Wednesday, April 20, 2016, at the First Baptist Church on Wallace Avenue in Coeur d’Alene. Betty’s favorite color is pink and we would like everyone to wear something pink in memory of her.

Our mother, sister and aunt will be missed. The family would like to deeply thank the Hospice House at Hummingbird Fields for their kind and thoughtful care. They are truly angels on Earth. The last few days Betty was with us, she told everyone when they left “I will see you in Heaven.”
