Betty Lou McCloud

Betty Lou (Davis) McCloud, 88, was born in Lafayette, IN on November 15, 1937, and passed away June 6, 2026 at her home. She graduated from WEA High School. Betty married and had four children before divorcing and moving to Grove City, OH. There she would meet Ed McCloud and the two would marry in 1975, living out 51 years of marriage together.

Betty worked at Buckeye Boy's Ranch in Grove City early in its inception with great friend Les Bostic. Betty worked several government jobs and retired from the U.S. Postal Service. Betty had a love for gardening which led to many years of selling her home grown vegetables in their front yard. She loved snowmobiling, baking, and traveling - which included her favorite trips to Tennessee. Betty also loved a trip now and then to the casino. Anyone who knew Betty knows what a wonderful, loving, caring, and selfless person she was.
