Elizabeth “Betty” Marie Ferland

WINSLOW – Elizabeth “Betty” Marie Ferland, 72, passed away on March 2, 2023, after a short, but courageous battle with cancer.

She was employed by Standard Electric and later Wesco for many, many years. An avid volunteer, she loved helping others. She was presented with the volunteer of the year award from Lakewood Continuing Care Center in 2018. She also had an unbridled love for animals and spent the last few years fostering dogs in need of adoption.

A very strong, independent woman, Betty never let anyone know how much she was hurting or if she ever needed anything. She not only made sure those around her were taken care of, she made sure she took care of herself. Reading a book on the deck or taking horse riding lessons with her granddaughter were a couple methods she used to accomplish that.

Betty was predeceased by the love of her life Jeff Brown; her son Joshua Moss; and her parents, Ruth Cote, Albert Ferland and stepfather Carl Cote. She is survived by her son Sean Cote (Kim), daughter Tanya Johnson (Mark); grandchildren, Corianna, Liam, Hazen and Lauren; and great-grandchildren Addison, Charli and Aiden. She is also survived by her wonderfully supportive brothers and sisters, Sally Cunningham, Ginny Allen (James), Peter Ferland (Beth) and Paul Ferland (Sherry); as well as many nieces and nephews.

There will be no immediate services. A graveside service will be held in the spring. Date to be announced at a future time.
