MOSS, ELIZABETH M (Betsy) ROTHRUM

born 9/2/16, took flight on Oct. 16, 2010. Her daughter was by her side, as she quietly passed away. Betsy’s passions were the arts, education, sports and entertaining, but mostly love of family and instilling family traditions. Besides being an artist, she was known as sharp witted, humorous and having an eye for detail. Brilliant sky-blue eyes that flashed beneath a wide complement of hats was her signature; as was driving her 280Z around Phoenix well into her 80s. “One classy lady” was a remark often made, and sometimes, “one tough broad”. Along with her husband Bill, she raised 3 children, Darrel, Derek & Deborah, in Los Angeles, CA. She is survived by Darrel & Deborah, 10 grandchildren: Nathan, Corbett, Leslie, Elliott, Ian, Marcie, Allissa, Sarah, Shannon, Stacie, and 4 great grandchildren. She leaves many fond memories for her family and friends to reflect upon and cherish. Betsy loved the Phoenix Art Museum and the many people she got to know there. She was a dedicated docent for several years. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to: Phoenix Art Museum, Attn: Development Dept., 1625 N. Central, Phx, AZ 85004.
