Betty S. Belknap passed away
August 25, 2016 due to age related
causes, she was 93. Born September
25, 1922 in Walla Walla, WA to Lee C.
Stuart and Merle Carter Stuart, she
moved with her family to Eugene in
1927. She was a survivor of polio as
a child and had an active life as an
only child until her two orphaned
cousins, Robert Duncan and Jim Ed
Duncan, came from Missouri to be
raised by her family. Her beloved
Jim Ed was a fi ghter pilot in WW II,
dying in a training accident in 1942.
Betty graduated from Eugene High School in 1940 and from
the University of Oregon with a degree in Social Sciences in 1945.
She was a member of the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority, remain-
ing active with various sorority matters for many years. She mar-
ried Edward J. Belknap December 21, 1946. Betty and Ed enjoyed
careers in education and Betty obtained her Master’s Degree in
Library Science from the U of O in 1965; she had a passion for
books and reading advocacy. Betty’s fi rst teaching assignment
was in Dallas, Oregon, in 1947 while Ed pursued his degree at
Oregon College of Education. Their fi rst teaching assignment to-
gether came shortly thereafter at the town of Valsetz, OR, a “com-
pany town” in the coast range west of Salem. In 1951 their son,
James Edward, was born. In 1953 the family moved to Eugene
where they lived until Ed’s death in 1994. Betty continued to live
independently in Eugene until 2013 at which time she moved to
Cottage Grove to be closer to her son, Jim. Betty’s last working
position was as the librarian at the then Jefferson Junior High
school until a surprise in 1964 brought the birth of a second son,
Robert Stuart, who tragically was killed in an auto accident in
1983.
Betty was a proud Democrat, often saying one of her great-
est honors was having been able to vote for Franklin Delano Roo-
sevelt in his last election. She was a long time member of the
League of Women Voters. She served for eight years on the Beth-
el School District Board in the 1970s. Betty was an avid bridge
player, enjoying that well into her late 80s. A former member of
the Unitarian Church, Betty lived with a commitment to educa-
tion and social issues in her community and around the world.
She is survived by her son, Jim, beloved daughter-in-law, Ardis,
and granddaughters Tamara Belknap, Jennifer Belknap William-
son, Dr. Janice Belknap, and Wendy Fuller. Betty was blessed with
a truly great grand-son-in-law with Jennifer’s husband, Jason
Williamson. Great grandchildren Fisher Williamson and Cleo Wil-
liamson were the joys of her fi nal years.
A memorial service will be held on Sunday, September 4,
2016 at 3:00 PM at First Presbyterian Church of Cottage Grove,
216 South 3 rd Street.
