Dolores Laverne

Beaty

Dolores Laverne (Faller)  Beaty, 94 years of age, passed away in her home in Newcastle on March 30, 2023.  The daughter of Oliver and Nellie Elsie (Henley) Faller, Dolores was born on June 9, 1928 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Dolores grew up in Oklahoma City and was a graduate of Capitol Hill High School.  Dolores married Willard Eason Beaty on October 15, 1948, and this marriage lasted for fifty-one years until Willard's passing in 2000.   They lived in Newcastle since 1970.  Willard and Dolores owned and operated Bethany Hardware in the early 80's for about four or five years.  Dolores was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Blanchard.  There she worked in the genealogy library.

For the most part of her life, Dolores worked as a homemaker.  And what a homemaker she was.  She loved making her home beautiful and inviting with Home Interior.  She loved sewing, and made all the girls wedding dresses in the family.  She enjoyed gardening, canning, and cooking.  She was a part of the Home Extension Club in Newcastle for a time.  But quilting was something she loved and excelled at for many years.  She made sixty plus quilts in the last fifteen years of her life.  Time with family was important to Dolores and she enjoyed spending time at the lake with family members.  She will be missed by all of her family and friends.
