Betty Jean Elmore Floyd

Betty Jean Elmore Floyd, a resident of Dothan, received her wings on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at the age of 63, at Flowers Hospital surrounded by her loving family after an 8 year long, heart-breaking period of physical and mental decline inflicted on her by dementia.

Keeping with Betty’s wishes, the family has chosen to donate her body to ACOM (Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine) our hope is that her body is used to study & learn but also used to research dementia & hopefully one day find the cause & a cure.
