On Wednesday, October 5, 2022, Bettie L. Dannevik, daughter of late Samuel Barnes and late Gertrude Moos passed away at the age of 87. Bettie is survived by her loving husband Roger Dannevik, and devoted son Bob Dannevik. Bettie was also mother to late Sam Dannevik. Bettie passed away at Eastridge Care Home, Centralia, KS. Bettie was born in Axtel, KS.
Bettie was a fun-loving sibling to 6. Late August Barnes, Winifred Modica, Ethel Wessel, and Merle Barnes, and surviving sister Ruth Tanking, Seneca. Bettie was also a proud grandmother to Missy Mourek, Ottawa, Nic Dannevik, Lawrence, Dana Jo Dannevik, Oregon, and Deana Dannevik, Oregon. Bettie was a proud and wonderful great-grandmother to Porter & Reese Dannevik, Lawrence, and Elaina and Taryn Mourek, Ottawa.
Bettie graduated from Vermillion, KS High School in 1953. She was a friend to many and always called Vermillion “Home”.
Bettie worked for Western Electric, Omaha NE, for 20 years and was Vice President of the IBEW in 1974. Bettie also worked at Bendix King (Honeywell), Lawrence, KS for many years. Bettie made many great friends over the years working. Bettie’s last job was when she was known as the “pizza lady” at Lawrence High School, KS. Bettie loved serving in the kitchen at the high school and seeing all the students.
Bettie had a love for cooking, and no one ever left her house hungry, she was sure of it. One of Betties other hobbies was watching her Nebraska Husker Football. “GO BIG RED!”
Bettie was best known for her spunky attitude, and even being described as a “pistol”. Bettie loved her family tremendously, and she proved that every day of her life.
A memorial service to celebrate Bettie will be held in Vermillion, KS, date to be determined.
So sorry for your loss! Thoughts and prayers to Bob and Roger at this difficult time!

My deepest condolences to the family. Bettie was a special lady. We enjoyed a lot of laughs over the years. One memory of many that comes to mind is we would sit at our computers at lunch and play solitaire. She was always losing and I was always winning.

Roger, I am sorry for your loss. Although I didn’t know your wife, I’m not surprised that she was a pistol, knowing you. Sending you thoughts of Peace.
Bettie was an original! She was always up for a party, whether it was out dancing with Roger or a birthday celebration for grandkids and great grandkids. She was always the biggest supporter & cheerleader for her sons, grandchildren & great grandchildren. She will be missed by so many.
