Betty J. (Stahl) Freshcorn, 87, of Butler, passed away peacefully the morning of Monday, April 20, 2026, while under the care of Good Samaritan Hospice House, in Wexford.

Born March 26, 1939, in Pittsburgh, she was the daughter of the late Barron E. and Sara A. (Dawson) Stahl.

Betty was a graduate of Hampton High School and went on to work for Mine Safety Appliances for 20 years as a payroll clerk. She was a longtime member of East Butler Presbyterian Church and was the definition of a Christian woman. Betty was a ray of sunshine, always wearing a smile and greeting each day with a servant’s heart. She loved crocheting, eating watermelon and loved all animals; especially her “Gramma's Boy,” Blondie.

She is survived by her daughter, Donna Lynn (Dana) George; her grandson, Robert L. Dillaman (Stefanie Cunningham); four great-grandchildren, Mariah, Chet, Haley and Hailey; one stepdaughter; and five stepgrandchildren.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Dale E. Freshcorn.
