Betty Jean Loveall (Siercks)

May 1, 1928 - December 10, 2020

Betty Jean Siercks was born May 1 1928 to Thelma A and Otto H Siercks at the Military Avenue Hospital in Fremont NE. Paternal grandparents were Julius and Magdalena Siercks, longtime residents of Fremont. Maternal grandparents were Simon Besst (Dec'd. 1/3/1914) and Joyce Besst, who also lived in Fremont for many years with her daughter Maxine.

Betty's father's job entailed frequent moving. They settled in Grand Island when she started school. They stayed there until she completed 6th grade. She moved back to Fremont for 7th grade, then on to Chicago where she completed 8th and 9th grade. Despite all the moving, Betty spent every summer in Fremont and always thought of that as her home town.

In 1943 the family moved to Long Beach California where they lived for the remainder of their lives. Betty completed school in Long Beach at Polytechnic High School where she graduated in 1946. She had two marriages, both ending in divorce. She was married in 1946 to Al Freiburger and her son Steven was born in 1947. Her 2nd marriage, in 1952, was to Floyd Loveall.

In 1949 She went to work for the Trust Department at Security Pacific National Bank in Long Beach, where she began as a bookkeeper, advancing to Trust Officer, as position which she held until retirement on June 5 1985.

Betty J Loveall passed away on December 10 2020. Betty was preceded in death by her son Steven A Freiburger on January 8 2016.
