Grande Bettye Swann

Bettye Swann, sposata Barton, è una Testimone di Geova dagli anni '80.



She is now retired and, according to a 2005 interview, suffers from a degenerative spinal condition.
Ora è in pensione e secondo una intervista del 2005, soffre di una condizione degenerativa della colonna vertebrale.

"Swann picked up other gigs at the Town Tavern and Union Plaza, and her last public performance took place in 1980, the year Barton passed away. (He was 20 years her senior.) It was the same year Bettye Swann died, and Betty Barton was reborn as one of Jehovah's Witnesses.

Now Swann lives in her home in North Las Vegas, suffering from a degenerative spine condition and collecting disability. She wants to complete her degree in education, but recurring pain keeps her from achieving her goal. She attends services at Kingdom Hall off of Rancho Drive, and one afternoon I met her there and sat beside her. She was unsure of the first Kingdom Song, I could tell. Obviously, she didn't recognize it."
