Julie Ann Betts Morris, aged 50, peacefully entered her Heavenly abode on Friday, September 29, 2023, from her residence. She was born on February 10, 1973, in Greenville, MS, to Willie “Bill” and Shirley Mathis Betts. Julie was a devoted wife and a loving mother of three. She achieved her Bachelor’s Degree in Speech Science from Delta State University and dedicated herself to the role of Speech Therapist at North Pontotoc School. Her interests included boating and enjoying the beach with her family, as well as expressing her love for Jesus and serving others.

She was not only a dearly loved wife, mother, daughter, aunt, and friend but also an individual who will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. She was the sweetest person and is a shining example of Jesus’ love.
