Austintown - Elizabeth "Betty" Lou Jordon, 81, passed away Tuesday evening, November 19, 2019 with her family at her side at Canfield Place Assisted Living.

For over 22 years, Betty worked as a cashier for Fisher Fazio grocery Store in Austintown and Warren, retiring in 1996. She was a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Austintown.

Betty was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. Her family was the light of her life and she cherished every moment she had with them, especially her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and her cat, Kitty. She loved spending time with them cooking and baking and her family and friends looked forward to her specialties; spaghetti sauce, pizza, her world famous fudge, cream puffs, and her caramels. She thoroughly enjoyed sharing her pizza and fudge with her neighbors, dear friends, and the staff at Canfield Giant Eagle Pharmacy.

In addition to her parents and husband, Betty was preceded in death by her sister, Eleanor Staneff; and her beloved dog, Louie.
