NILSSON, Betty Marie (née WITZEL) - The friends and family of Betty Marie Nilsson (nee Witzel) are saddened to announce her passing on June 19, 2021, in the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital (Picton) in her 98th year. Betty was born in Kitchener, Ontario on December 13, 1923, to Edward and Louise (Kudoba) Witzel. She was the wife to the late Bill Nilsson (2017), sister to Jerry Witzel (deceased) and mother to Gary. Her sisters-in-law Vivian Robinson, Astrid Burkholder, and Carole (Don) Ziegler survive her. Betty spent time in the WRCNS during WWII. She met her husband Bill at the Chicopee Ski Club in Kitchener, and they were married in 1952. They lived in Kitchener until their move in the early 1990s to Wellington. The friends and family would like to thank the medical staff at the Picton Hospital, her fantastic neighbours Nicole; Doris and Karen as well as Tod Lavendar for their support during these last years. At Betty's request cremation has taken place and no service is planned. In her memory donations can be made to the PEC Memorial Hospital Foundation (pecmhf.ca).
