Anne (Betty) McDermott of White Plains, NY, passed away Monday, June 4th, 2018, at the age of 91. The beloved wife of the late Thaddeus Prior McDermott; Betty was born in Tarrytown, New York, April 1st, 1927. She was the daughter to the late William Boyle, and the late Babette J. Boyle and is survived by her 5 children: Linda Babette Tucci, Joan Elizabeth Battipaglia, Gary William McDermott, Richard Allan McDermott, and John McDermott. She also leaves behind 5 grandchildren, and 12 great grandchildren. Betty was the Secretary of the Westchester Women's Bowling Association (WWBA) for 35 years where she was very well-liked and respected. Even after her time as Secretary came to an end, bowling still managed to play a huge part in her life. Traveling from city to city, all around the country, she met some amazing people. After her career in the WWBA was over, Betty joined the staff at St. Vincent's Hospital in Harrison, NY where she would finish out her working days after another 17 years. Once retired, Betty enjoyed volunteering 3 times a week at the hospital she once worked, traveling, and spending time with family. She lit up Vegas for years with her spirit and tenacity for life; shining brighter than any billboard or hotel on the strip. We lost a true star, and already the world feels a little less bright. In lieu of flowers, please try and follow this amazing woman's example and live everyday to the fullest and be grateful for all you have. Visitation will be at the Ballard-Durand Funeral Home, 2 Maple Ave at South Brodway, White Plains, NY, on Friday the 8th from 3-9 PM and Saturday the 9th from 12-2pm. Funeral service will begin at 2pm.
