She was born on May 27, 1928, in Monett, Missouri, to Douglas W. and Bess (Carney) Green, and lived in Marionville, Missouri, until age 9. Her family then moved to Buffalo, Oklahoma, for three years and then finally made their home in Hinton, Oklahoma.

She married Donald Frank Fulton on November 25, 1951, and together they built a life centered around faith, family, and service. Betty and Don lived in Britton, OK and in West Oklahoma City for 40 years. Early in their marriage, Betty worked for Home Mortgage Company, then spent 14 years at home as a full-time mother and homemaker. Betty returned to the workforce as a bookkeeper for NW Christian Childcare Center and worked there for many years. After retiring, Don and Betty moved to their family farm West of Hinton. She was an active and dedicated member of Northwest Christian Church in Oklahoma City, where she taught children’s Sunday School for many years, and was active in other church groups as well as serving as a deaconness. When they moved to Hinton, they joined the First United Methodist Church and became active with that church community. While they lived in the Hinton area, she was also a member of The Quest Club and enjoyed gardening, baking, journaling, and playing dominoes. Betty believed strongly in early childhood education and during her life volunteered with several children programs, including being a Girl Scout and Cub Scout leader.
