Hewitt, Betty Jeane Lawson (Cleveland)

Betty Jeane Lawson Hewitt, 91, of Cleveland, passed away at Bradley Healthcare & Rehab on Saturday, September 24, 2022.  She was born April 27, 1931 in Cleveland to her father and mother, August and Bobbie Lawson.  She has been a resident of Cleveland her entire life.  Betty was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and this gave her strength to endure to the end.
