Betty Jean Geiser
1927 - 2018
Betty married Galen D. Geiser on June 1, 1950 in Topeka. Between 1973 and 1983, Betty worked in various secretarial positions for the U.S. government as she and Galen lived in several different states during his career. They returned to Topeka, where she later retired from the US Attorney’s office.
Betty was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Viva Marie Swalwell; and her granddaughter, Lindsay Wilson. Survivors include her daughter and son-in-law, Gaylene and Darrell Dibbern, Topeka; daughter, Kimberly Dixon; her brother, Russell Noel Taylor (Mel), Longmont, Colorado; grandchildren Amy Beck, Anchorage, Alaska, and Ashley Soper, Topeka; four great-grandchildren, Alex Beck, Lauren Wilson, Ryan Soper, and Jack Wilson; seven beloved nieces and nephews; and her “adopted” former neighbors, who were a son and daughter to her, Marlene Conoway and Mark Stevens.
The family wishes to express our everlasting gratitude to the Brewster Health Center staff for their loving care and attention, not only to Betty, but to the entire family. We also extend a special thank you to Great Lakes Caring Hospice for their support in recent weeks.
A memorial service will be held at Brewster Place Main Street Chapel on Thursday, July 12 at 2:00 pm. Betty will lie in-state at Parker-Price Funeral Home from 12 noon until 5:00 pm on Wednesday. Private burial will take place at Rochester Cemetery.
