Betty Sapp Hewitt

Betty Sapp Hewitt, age 92, entered into the arms of her loving Savior on April 9, 2026. She was born on January 4, 1934, in Tifton, Georgia, to the late George and Dorcas Tanner Sapp, and was raised in Macon, Georgia, where she spent her formative years building a strong foundation of faith and family that guided her throughout her life.

As a devoted military wife, Betty embraced a life of travel and adventure, supporting her family as they lived in various locations across the country. In 1968, they settled in Warner Robins, Georgia, where she would make her home for many years.

Betty began her career working at Houston Speech and Hearing before continuing her professional journey at Robins Air Force Base. There, she served in Civil Service within the Civil Engineering department, dedicating many years of faithful work before retiring.

Betty was a woman of many talents and passions. She found great joy in her hobbies, especially ceramics and doll-making, where her creativity and attention to detail truly shined. She also loved working in her yard, tending to her flowers and creating beauty outdoors. She especially cherished time spent traveling with her sisters, creating memories that she held close to her heart. Painting brought her peace, and she enjoyed playing cards with friends and loved ones. These simple pleasures brought her immense happiness and were a reflection of her vibrant and artistic spirit.

Betty was also a faithful member of Shirley Hills Baptist Church, where her faith remained a cornerstone of her life. She was a proud member of the Red Hat Society, where she enjoyed fellowship and fun with dear friends.

In addition to her parents, Betty was preceded in death by her sisters, Juanita Massey and Dorothy Deane.

Her memory will forever be treasured by her children, Jana Barrineau (Roy) of Macon, Georgia, Tim Hewitt (Mary) of Seabeck, Washington, and Art Hewitt of Thomaston, Georgia; grandchildren, Lee Barrineau (Mary), Ross Barrineau (Jenny), Betsy Barrineau, William Aman, Jesse Hewitt, Barry Beverly, Marie Pitts, and Angie Self; thirteen great-grandchildren; twelve great-great-grandchildren; and sisters, Sally Harrell and Patricia Smith.
