Betty Catherine Kirkpatrick, age 66 of Glasgow, KY formerly of Burkesville, KY passed away on Tuesday, August 14, 2018 at Signature Healthcare of Glasgow. Betty was born on December 27, 1951 in Cumberland County, KY to the late Roy Luster Kirkpatrick and Mary Owsley Kirkpatrick. Betty grew up in Cumberland County, KY where she attended school and graduated from Cumberland County High School and later attended Lindsey Wilson College. Betty worked at numerous jobs but her calling and passion was caring for others, both elderly and the young. Later she moved to Glasgow, KY where she became a nanny working for several people helping to raise their children from babies until school age. She loved what she did and loved all of the children she cared for. Betty was a member of Big Sandy Holiness Church under the leadership of Bishop Jose Anders. She professed her faith at a young age under the pastorship of the late Bishop George Alexander. Betty was a woman of faith and a strong believer in God. She loved to sing her favorite song, "I've Got a Feeling Everything's Gonna Be Alright." With that being her song, now "Everything is Alright" because she left this world and got her wings and went on to glory to be with her Lord.
