Betty L. Connelly

Betty L. Connelly, 61, of Fishers, passed away peacefully at her home on Friday, March 31, 2023.  She was born on April 19, 1961 to the late Willard and Margaret (Knopic) Melcher in Gary, Indiana.

Betty was a kind and compassionate woman who always helped others when needed, and enjoyed working with her friends at the Hamilton Southeastern High School cafeteria. She loved being a mother and did everything in her power to make sure her kids were well cared for even during her final days. During her time off, Betty enjoyed tending to her flock of wild birds, wild rabbits, and a special squirrel named Stumpy. She also loved spending quiet evenings at home with her husband. They didn't always spend time at home and when they were out; Betty's favorite spot was relaxing at Pensacola beach in Florida with an ice cold margarita.

She is survived by her husband of 39 years, Patrick Connelly; daughter, Jessica Connelly of Bristol, RI; and son, Michael Connelly of Indianapolis, IN.

Visitation will be from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Thursday, April 6, 2023 at Randall & Roberts Fishers Mortuary, 12010 Allisonville Road, in Fishers.
