Betty Ruth Dolph was born October 27, 1921 to Pearl Bertha Hormel and Vernon Lester Dolph, the 7 ^th of thirteen children, at Iowa Center, Iowa. Her childhood was in Cambridge, Iowa where she attended school.

On April 26, 1939, she married Roy Russell Ogle. Together they raised and educated 6 children: Bonnie Lou, Betty Joan, Sharon Sue, Glen Roy, Ronald LeRoy, and Roger LaVern.

On December 24, 1947, the family moved to Roy's ancestral home located 12 miles south of Indianola in Warren County. Through floods, draughts, celebrated births and devastating deaths they survived. They were married nearly 60 years when Roy passed on March 17, 1997. Betty continued to manage the farm until 2014. She celebrated when their "Valley View" farm was designated as a Heritage Farm at the Iowa State Fair in 2014.

Betty is survived by her children, Bonnie Borrall, Joan Morris, Sharon Crabb, Glen Ogle, Roger Ogle; daughter-in-law, Diane Ogle; 21 grandchildren, 33 great-grandchildren, 29 great-great grandchildren; and sister, Ila Ersland; many friends and neighbors.
