"Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness. “ Isaiah 41:10 Betty Brown Moses was a woman whose life was a living testimony of faith, of service, of warmth, and of an unshakeable love for both Jehovah and the people He placed in her path. Born on October 6, 1955, in Darlington, South Carolina, Betty entered this world as the beloved daughter of Edna Mae Brown. From her earliest days, those who knew her recognized something special — a tenderness, a genuineness, and a quiet strength that would define her every step. To her closest friends, she was affectionately known as Betty Boop. The children she embraced as her own called her "Mama Betty." And to the man who held her heart, she was simply "Boo" and "Doll" — names that spoke of the deep and tender bond she shared with her husband. Whatever name she was called, the love behind it was always the same. Betty attended the public schools of Lamar, South Carolina, where her love for others took root and grew. She proudly walked across the stage at Lamar High School in 1973, the first step of a journey guided by purpose. Her heart, always inclined toward caring for others, led her to pursue education in the health field — a calling she answered with dedication and joy. On December 11, 1975, Betty graduated from Florence -Darlington Technical College as a Certified Nurses' Aide, fulfilling a passion that would shape the next several decades of her life. She poured herself into that work not for recognition, but because people mattered to her deeply — each one seen, each one cared for, each one treated with dignity. On November 3, 1983, Betty was united in holy marriage to Albert Moses Sr. — a covenant she honored with her whole heart. Together, they built a home filled with love, laughter, and purpose. From that union, Betty was blessed with two sons whom she adored beyond measure and spoke of with immense pride. They were, without question, her heart: Albert Moses Jr. and Myron Moses. In September 1998, Betty made one of the most significant decisions of her life — she was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. From that day forward, there was never a question about where her love and loyalty belonged. She was a firm believer who shared her faith freely, joyfully, and without hesitation. Her devotion to her Heavenly Father Jehovah was not something she kept quietly to herself — it was woven into every conversation, every hug, every act of kindness she extended to the world around her. Betty devoted herself to the health and well-being of others for many years, serving faithfully at Wilson Hospital in Darlington, South Carolina, and later at McLeod Regional Medical Center, where she remained until her retirement in 2020. In those halls, she did far more than fulfill a job description — she formed bonds that lasted a lifetime. The friendships she built with colleagues and patients were genuine and lasting, continuing long after retirement, and sustained with love even through her own courageous battle with cancer. Betty is survived by and left to cherish her memory, her mother Edna Mae Brown, her husband Albert Moses Sr., her son Myron Moses and his wife Deborah Moses, and her son Albert Moses Jr., and daughter Angela Pooler. She had 7 grandchildren, whom she lovingly cherishes. Ashanti Moses, TyQuavious Mack, Kierra Lyle, Tyrell Delaine, Asia Delaine, Davyon Pooler, and Tatiana Williamson. She also had the privilege of being the great-grandmother to 6 great-grandchildren. Betty has two uncles, Nathaniel Rush and Sammie Lee Rush, and an aunt, Christine Rush that she grew up as brothers and sisters, because of how close they were to one another. Helen Covington (Anthony) Raleigh, NC, Rachel McKeithen of Aberdeen, NC, Celestine Miller Pinehurst, NC, Phyllis Berry Charlotte, NC, Fortner Berry Jr.(Rose) Charlotte, NC, Craig Berry(Kathy) Columbia, SC.; She also had a host of extended brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, and children whom she loved dearly. Her greatest joy was serving Jehovah and seeing her family together, smiling and enjoying themselves. One of her biggest attributes and what she was known for was her tight and affectionate hugs. She was truly genuine and sincere. The love she showed will never be forgotten.
