Elizabeth (Bette)'s obituary

Years are but one way to measure a life; Bette's life is best measured in lives she touched. Bette loved science and music. She worked in many different healthcare labs throughout her life and had a gift for engaging with patients. She was involved with her community doing lake quality work through Community Action Teams, teaching piano, and becoming a Waterford Township Trustee where she was honored to serve her neighbors.

Her parents, Confort A. and June B. Nucci, predeceased her. She is survived by her brother Joe Nucci, her daughters Patricia and Sharonne O'Shea, grandchildren, Aj O'Shea and JuneLin and Zellaby McGauly, as well as many nieces and nephews.

Services will be held at St. Perpetua Catholic Parish. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to Hess-Hathaway Park (https://waterfordmi.gov/1329/…
