Betty Sue (Forrest) James, 80, went to be with the Lord on Thursday evening,

Born in Norfolk, Virginia, she was the daughter of the late Edwin Booth Forrest, 
Sr., and Sarah Buchanan Forrest. Betty was a devoted wife and mother to her 
family, being at home raising her children in her early years. After her

obtained her master's degree with honors from Western Carolina University in 
English and soon took a position as an English Professor at Montreat College in 
Montreat, NC. After retiring from teaching, she enjoyed gardening and spending 
time with her grandchildren.
Surviving to cherish her memory are her husband of 61 years, Hope McMullan 
James, Jr.; daughter, Amy Sue Peace and husband, Jeff of Asheville, NC; sons, 
Scott McMullan James and wife, Jennifer of Swannanoa, NC, and Edwin "Ted" 
Forrest James of Asheville, NC; 6 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild.
A graveside service will be held at Elmwood Cemetery in Norfolk, VA, on Friday,
