Betty Jane Andrews, 85, of Springdale, PA, passed away peacefully on Saturday, March 23. She was born to the late John and Kathryn Krampholz on Nov. 8, 1938. Betty was predeceased by her husband, and one true love, William (Bill) Andrews, who died unexpectedly on April 13, 1982, after almost 20 years of marriage.
