Bettie Cheeseman,
81, died at 3:55 PM on Saturday, January 21, 2017, at Lost Creek Care Center in Lima.
Bettie was born on Tuesday, July 16, 1935, in Columbus, Ohio. She was preceded in death by parents Helen (Fleming) and Melvin Wilkinson, father Virgil Fleming and brother Fred Fleming. She graduated from Columbus West High School and was raised on the West side. She was married to Tommy Cheeseman for 54 years who died in 2010.
Bettie raised 4 sons, and dozens of pets and sheep, and worked for many years at Lovejoy Supermarkets in Plain City, Ohio. She was also employed by Ranco Industries and the local schools. She enjoyed gardening, collecting antiques with her husband, reading and the many people she worked with and knew in Plain City. She's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. She has fought a good fight; she has finished her course; she has kept the faith.
She is survived by sons: Timothy (Kellie Armey) Cheeseman of Lima; Tommy Lee (Vanessa) Cheeseman of Columbus; Patrick (Vanessa) Cheeseman of Plain City; and Michael Cheeseman of Lima. Grandchildren: Tristam, Charley, Alyssa, Chris, Amanda L., Elizabeth, Tabitha, Amanda and three great-grandchildren: Shelby, Tobie and Wyeth.
