Betty Peterson Davenport, 75, of Albemarle, peacefully passed away on Thursday, March 12, 2026, at her home surrounded by her loving family.
A Celebration of Life service will be held at 1:00 pm on Saturday, April 4, 2026, in the Stanly Funeral Home Chapel, officiated by Pastor Ron Loflin. There will be no formal visitation.
Betty was born March 31, 1950, in Mecklenburg County to the late John and Pauline Peterson.
Those left to cherish her memory include her daughter, Sabrina Pearson (Carl), and her son, Jason Davenport; grandchildren, Chance Morgan (Hannah), Sophia Stoehrer (Rob), Ariel Stoehrer, Jacob Pearson, and Camilla Stitt; and her great-grandchild, Arya.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her siblings, William Peterson, Jerry Peterson, Trudy Peterson, and Michael Peterson.
Betty was a devoted mother and grandmother who adored her family, especially her grandchildren. She loved trips to the beach, enjoyed spending time socializing with friends, and had a special love for oldies music. One of her favorite things was singing along to the classic song “My Girl,” which always brought a smile to her face.
The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to Sandra and all the volunteers at Care Café for the compassion, care, and support shown to Betty during her declining health.
Memorials may be made to Care Café, PO Box 1022, Albemarle, NC 28001, in Betty’s honor.
