Betty Bunger, hero to her kids
Betty J. Clifford Bunger was a hero to her kids.
Mrs. Bunger, of Covington, was a single mom in the 1960s, before single parents had the resources they do these days, said her son, Darryl E. Bunger of Covington.
"She raised three kids as a single mother and did a hell of a job at it," Bunger said.
Her kids not only had full bellies and a roof over their heads, "she raised us like she wanted us to be somebody," her son said.
Mrs. Bunger, 68, died at 11:30 p.m. Monday at Baptist Convalescent Center, Newport. She was a day care worker with South Side Baptist Day Care.
She had a great sense of humor, liked TV comedies and "was always clowning around," Bunger said.
She will be remembered for the love she showed, he said.
"She never would put people down, she cared a lot, and she never judged people," he said.
Her husband, Donald E. Bunger, preceded her in death.
