Betsy Jones Stubblefield
June 3, 1932 ~ February 20, 2023
90 Years Old
Betsy Jones Stubblefield, 90, of Burlington, NC, passed away peacefully at her beloved home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Monday, February 20, 2023.
Betsy was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She will forever be remembered for her beautiful smile, outgoing personality, and positive outlook on life. Her desire to help others and musical talents spread joy throughout her community.
A native of Alamance County, she was the devoted wife of 51 years to Jack Scott Stubblefield and the daughter of J. Luther Jones and Esther Lee Jones, both deceased.
Betsy spent over 29 years caring for her husband after a devastating stroke while maintaining her commitment to her family, community and church.
Betsy was a proud graduate of Altamahaw-Ossipee High School. While attending A-O, she, along with her sister Grace and brother Leo, known as Leo and The Prairie Sweethearts sang Western, Country, and Gospel over the radio stations WBBB and WFNS. She retired from Glen Raven Mills as a supervisor and was a life-long caregiver.
Betsy was an active member of A-O Civitans where she held numerous leadership positions including President (2006 – 2007), President-Elect, and Past President. She served on the Board of Directors and was chair of the Awards, Fundraising and Program Committees over the years. Betsy received the Civitan Service Award (2007 – 2008), Junior Civitan Club Builder Award for Clover Garden School (2014), and Civitan of the Year (2021). Her proudest accomplishments were receiving several prestigious awards at the District and International levels for her award-winning notebooks and for receiving the Civitan Honor Key, the highest award the Club can give a member.
Betsy was a founding member of the Cornpickers where she performed as Minnie Pearl (1999 – 2019) throughout the community. She was a natural born entertainer and played piano by ear at an early age. As a member of Bethlehem Christian Church, she was active in the choir and the Ladies’ Fellowship. She was a past member of the Western Alamance High School Athletic Boosters Board and received Booster of the Year (1989).
Survivors include three daughters, Vivian Stubblefield Payne and husband Doyle, Vickie Stubblefield Hicks and husband Gary, and Jacqueline “J.J.” Stubblefield May and husband Todd; grandchildren, Scott Payne and wife Rebecca, Wesley Payne and wife Justine, Elizabeth De Los Santos and husband Benjamin, Jessica Hicks, Katie Hicks, Yates May, and Jack May; great grandchildren, Henry Payne, Hunter Payne, Hudson Payne, Sonny Payne, Adalyn Payne, Benjamin De Los Santos, and Marian De Los Santos; and brother, Charles Jones.
Betsy was preceded in death by two sisters, Thelma, and Grace as well as three brothers, Vernon, Leo, and her precious baby brother Gary “pumpkin”.
The family wishes to express appreciation for the extraordinary care, love, and devotion of her team of caregivers.
The funeral service will be conducted at Bethlehem Christian Church on Friday, February 24, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. by Rev. Todd Felkel with the family receiving friends from 12:30 until 1:45 p.m. prior to the service at the church.
Burial will follow in the church cemetery.
The family will also receive friends in the Fellowship Hall after the graveside service.
