Bennington – Betsy Mae (King) Davendonis, 55, born May 26, 1967 in Bennington, Vermont, passed peacefully on Sunday, July 10, 2022.
Betsy followed in her Grandmother’s footsteps becoming a CNA so that she could care directly for the elderly and veteran populations. She enjoyed a lifetime career as a Certified Nursing Assistant/Medical Technician and Caregiver for the elderly and our nation’s Veterans, working largely with Alzheimer clients in Vermont and Florida.
A transplant to Florida more than a decade ago, Betsy had a great love for and found sanctuary on the ocean beaches.
Betsy was a loving mother to Sara (& Travis) Davendonis Bentley, Clint Davendonis (Vermont), and Mckayla Davendonis (Florida), Grandmother to Karsyn, Ashton, and Mattie Bentley (Vermont) and Godmother to Londynn Lynn (Florida).
Betsy is pre-deceased by her father, Howard J. King (New York) and is survived by her mother, June C. King (New York/Arizona); brother, Vincent Harwood (Vermont); sister and brother-in-law, Kelly-G and Kevin Kishbaugh (Arizona); niece and nephew, Emily (& Ray) Duke and Joey Keller (Arizona); and great-nephews: Silas, Austin & Beau Duke (Arizona).
“If you remember anything of me after I leave this world,
remember that I loved even when it was foolish.
That I cared even when it was unwanted.
When my body is gone, remember my heart.”
Betsy left this world too soon, but not before making a positive impact on so many lives. Her body is gone, but her heart will be remembered.
Carolyn Tessier says
Sweet Betsy. Worked harder, more dedicated, loved and cared deeper than any human ever could. Her sweet soul will be missed and her heart will always be remembered .
