Light a Candle
On September 10, 1944, Betsy Sibley Ealy was born to the late Artemease (Neelon) and Willie Sibley of Gloster, Mississippi. She started this life with vitality and enthusiasm; excited and eager to live life fully. With her parents as my coaches, she was given the foundation upon which she was able to build a strong faith, ideas, and dreams for the future. Very early her sisters- Lille Jean (Charles) Hunt: both deceased, Evelyn Louise (Fred) Veals of Smithdale, MS, Louella (Roosevelt: deceased) Seeden of Gloster, MS, Dolly Mae (John) Haynes of Centreville, MS, and Bonnie Nell Sibley of Dallas, TX, and my brothers: Nathaniel (Jennie) Sibley: deceased, and Willie Mckenzie Sibley, Jr. of Gloster, MS and I formed a team. And, oh, how how she loved her teammates. Together she faced the world and built long lasting relationships. "If I can help somebody, as I travel along If I can help somebody, with a word or song If I can help somebody, from doing wrong No, my living shall not be in vain" Newspaper article: https://www.24-7pressrelease.com/press-release/161694/betsy-lee-ealy-recozgnized-for-four-decades-of-dedication-to-education
