Bette Mae Drummond Kindall
Bette Kindall, 83 went
home to be with the Lord on March 17, 2015 at Life Care Center of Treasure
Valley. Bette was born on July 2, 1930
to Albert and Caroline Drummond, the youngest of their 13 children. She married Harold Kindall in 1949 and in
1955 moved to Boise where they raised their four children.
Bette was an excellent student and graduated
from Malta High School in 1949 and began work as a Stenographer for Phillips
County Courthouse in Malta, Montana working until she retired to begin a
family. Her daughter Kathy was born in
1951 and Connie in 1952. In Boise Terry
was born in 1957 and Tom came later in 1967.
Bette was a homemaker, excellent cook and seamstress.
One of her greatest joys was reading and
studying God’s Word. She wore out many a
Bible. Her life revolved around her church
family and serving in many different capacities at three Assembly of God Churches, Garden City Assembly of God (River City
Church), Calvary First Assembly and Hillcrest Trinity Assembly of God. She was an original member of Singing
Mothers, a group of women and eventually husbands that faithfully sang at various
Treasure Valley nursing homes for 45 years.
She also served with Harold in
MAPS, an extended missions program of the Assemblies of God helping repair and
build Assembly of God churches all over southern Idaho. During her life, Bette was able to take many
trips, including family vacations all over the Western States, several trips south to
visit her oldest daughter, two tours to Israel and a trip to England and
Scotland, where her family was originally from.
After Harold’s retirement, for many years they traveled to Quartzsite, Arizona joining many other RVers
and attending special services at Snowbird Assembly of God. Dad said those were some of their best years.
Bette was preceded in
death by her parents and twelve siblings.
She is survived by her loving
husband of 65 years, Harold Kindall, children, Kathy (Tom) Henderson; Connie
(Paul) Smith; Terry Kindall and Tom (Julie) Kindall.
Grandchildren, Michael and Mark Henderson; Angela Colburn,
Nicole (Scott) Rainsberry, Jackie Thacker; Austin Kindall; and Drew and Derek
Kindall. Step grandchildren, Heidi
Smith; Brenna Russell and Jessica and
Melissa Smith. Great Grandchildren, Taylor
Peterson, Morgan and Emma Colburn; Kaleb, Lucas, Chloe and Gracie Mei

The family would like to thank the staff at Life
Care Center of Treasure Valley for providing excellent care of Bette this last
year and First Choice Hospice who guided us these last few weeks. Bette’s greatest desire in life was to spread
the Good News of Jesus Christ,that all who would believe in him should not have
to perish but have life everlasting.
Mom we shall see you again someday.
