etty Lou Sampson was born October 27th,

Betty met the love of her life, Nicholas Schouviller, at a rural dance. While dating, Betty moved to Fargo, ND, and soon after,

After getting married, Betty and Nicholas purchased the Zurn family farm. Betty enjoyed life on the farm and worked alongside Nicholas doing whatever work needed to be done. She loved the outdoors and tended large flower and vegetable gardens. She was a great cook and enjoyed preparing meals for her family. In 2012 the Schouviller farm was acknowledged as a Century Old Farm.
Betty’s greatest joy was being with her large family. She loved having family gatherings at the farm, and going to the grandchildren’s activities. She loved each and every child and wanted to make every child feel special. She was truly the happiest when surrounded by her family.
Betty enjoyed going to lunch with her friends, shopping, tending to her flowers and getting her hair fixed at Magnolia’s.

Remember me when flowers bloom early in the spring Remember me on sunny days in the fun that summer brings
Remember me in the fall as you walk through the leaves of gold And in the wintertime, remember me in the stories that are told
But most of all remember each day, right from the start
I will be forever near, for I live within your heart
