Betty Bickers

Don’t cry for me, for I have no fear.  All my pain is gone, and God took my tears.  Don’t cry for me, I am not alone.  The angels are with me to welcome me home.  Don’t cry for me, I will be okay.  Heaven is my home now and this is where I’ll stay.  Betty Lue Smith Bickers, 92, of Covington, KY, passed away on Saturday, January 15, 2022, at St. Elizabeth Hospital, Edgewood.  Betty was preceded in death by her parents, Ella Louise and Leslie Smith.  She graduated from Ludlow High School.  On November 19, 1948, she married the love of her life, Jack Bickers, who passed away January 13, 1987.
