Obituary for Bettie Gene Hines Wainscott
Bettie Gene Hines Wainscott, celebrated her ultimate healing and home going, peacefully at home on June 26, 2022, at the age of 90, surrounded by her loving family. Bettie was born on September 5, 1931, to Estel and Mattie Hines. Bettie grew up in Celetex and graduated from School in Hamlin Texas, where she married the love of her life, Wayne Wainscott on September 24, 1948. They were married for 69 wonderful years until Wayne’s death on August 28, 2017. The first three years of their marriage were spent on a farm in Hamlin. They moved to Haskell, where they lived the rest of their lives and raised their family. Bettie pursued a banking career and retired in 1991 from Haskell National Bank as Vice-president and head cashier.
Bettie was always active in church at both First Baptist Church and later Cornerstone Fellowship Baptist Church. After retiring, she enjoyed being a part of The Progressive Study Club and RV travels with her close friends. Her biggest delight in life, however, was always her family.

Bettie is survived by daughter, Susan Jones and Husband Bill of Belton; son, Danny Wainscott and wife Sharon of Knox City; 4 grandchildren, Mandi Watts, Jodi Teasley and husband Chad, Philip Wainscott, and Cody Wainscott and wife Cassie.
