She would later work for the Soil Conservation and Fish Hatchery until retirement. She met the love of her life, Billy Joe Sandusky and they were married June 4th, 1949. Quilting was her passion and her love for so many years. Many of her quilts would sell for thousands of dollars each. Betty Sandusky always was the most eloquently dressed person in the room. She had the self-proclaimed title as being the oldest resident in Bromide, OK. Betty and her husband Billy Joe had the oldest couple title and if you knew my uncle you know he ate it up with joy and laughter. With title in hand, they could be found riding in the Founder's Day parade each year. She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Ruth Elliott; son, Joe Mack Sandusky; and her beloved husband of 72 years, Billy Joe Sandusky; son in law, Kenneth Pennington; daughter in law, Carla Sandusky.
