A Time to be Born

 

Betty Kay Daniels-Thomas, daughter of Johnnie and Mildred Daniels, was born on March 16, 1951, in Miami, FL. She was one of three siblings.

A Time to Learn

 

Betty was a product (elementary through high school) of the Miami-Dade County public school system. She graduated from George Washington Carver High School. Betty went on to obtain her Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Education. She was a Certified Teacher and spent her entire career teaching at Meadowlane Elementary School.

 

A Time to Live

 

Betty was reared in a Christian home and became acquainted with God’s word at an early age. She knew the Lord as her personal Savior. She was a dedicated member and avid church goer of God’s Temple of Authority. She served as a local minister and financial officer as well as in whatever capacity needed.

 

A Time to Rest

 

On Tuesday, December 24, 2024, God in His infinite wisdom, saw fit to send His chariot of fire to transition His good and faithful servant from earth to glory. Betty, a humble yet brave spirit, took flight and is now resting on God’s celestial shores. We, her loved ones, friends, and associates are here today to pay our last respects to her earthly body. Betty finished her race and kept the faith. Both parents preceeded her in death, Johnnie and Mildred Daniels and a brother Johnnie Jr.
