Elizabeth L. "Betty" Tyler Bachman,  80, of Rochester passed away peacefully at 8:25 PM, November 11, 2025, with her loving family at her side.

On February 3, 1945, Betty Rhodes was born in Indianapolis.  In her late teens she moved to northern Indiana.

On May 14, 1960, Betty married the love of her life Mr. Jimmie Lee Tyler at Rochester's E.U.B. Church by Rev. Faulkner.  From their union came 4 wonderful children Jimmie, Dawn, Troy and Lisa.  The family tree continued to grow with the added blessings of 3 grandchildren.

With a strong work ethic Betty had diverse career interests.  She worked as quality control at one of McMahan - O'Connor's Asphalt Plants for many years then transitioned to the banking industry in Francisville.  Later in her life she owned and operated Leiters Ford Tavern.

To relax Betty was an avid bowler, letting the good times roll in multiple leagues at Quick's Lanes.  She also looked forward to BINGO, especially Wednesday nights at the Eagles.  Once in a while she and Jimmie would visit Blue Chip to play the slots.  At home Betty loved planting flowers each spring to enhance the landscape of their home. She and Jimmie also annually planted a garden, sharing the harvest with family and special friends.

Left to cherish Betty's memory is her lifelong best friend Jimmie Tyler at home; four children: Jimmie Lee (Mary Pat Young) Tyler Jr. of Nokomis, FL, Diana Dawn (Jan) Bryant of Opelika, Alabama, Troy Lynn Tyler of Plymouth, Lisa Lenee` (Thad) Wyman of Opelika, Alabama; three grandchildren: Jackson Nicholas Tyler, Greyson Elizabeth Bryant, Jessica Ann Tyler; and Gretchen, her treasured canine, the white Shih-Tzu.

Honoring Betty's wishes her family will have a family celebration of life at a later date.  She will be buried at Rochester's IOOF Cemetery.
