Betty L. (nee Hubbs) Haven, 90, of Dupo, IL, died on Jan. 9, 2025, at Memorial Hospital, Belleville. She was born June 11, 1934, in Iron Mountain, Mo.

Betty was a member of Holy Cross Lutheran Church, East Carondelet. She enjoyed going antiquing, relaxing with a good book or sitting down to work on a crossword puzzle in her free time. Betty also took enjoyment in traveling, as well as decorating and doing crafts. Her most treasured time was spent with her family, and she was devoted to helping family and friends in any way she could.  Betty also had a fun-loving, mischievous side and, much like her grandmother, was always up for an adventure.

She was preceded in death by her Husband Joseph D. Haven Jr.; son Timothy Haven; parents Harvey and Lucille (nee West) Hubbs; and siblings Harvey “Ozzie” Hubbs, Tommy Hubbs and Art Hubbs.
