Bette graduated from Spring Branch High School in 1950 and married her high school sweetheart, Jim Berry, on Dec. 12, 1953.
She was a career woman with a great business mind. In her early years, she did book keeping and office management, but her true passion was real estate.
She and Jim owned their own real estate business in Houston, which they sold when they moved to Burnet in 1979 and opened another real estate business.
Bette and Jim moved to Horseshoe Bay and Bette joined Horseshoe Bay Corp.
She considered her clients and co-workers as her second family.
Bette was a very hard-working, dedicated and successful real estate broker. Most of her time was spent doing real estate.
She also enjoyed, however, dressing up in costumes (the crazier the better,) listening to Jim sing, spending time with her dogs, Bud and Holly, and, of course, spending time with family.
