Betty L. Mast, 79, of Syracuse, went to be with the Lord on Thursday at Van Duyn Nursing Home. She was born in Cuzzart, and graduated from Kingwood High School in 1959. She lived in Cincinnati for a majority of her life until 2012 when she came to Syracuse, N.Y. In recent years, she enjoyed doing arts and crafts, singing and playing bingo. Her smile was contagious and she was loved by all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Oscar and Mary Groves; two brothers, Standley and Paul; and one sister, Virginia Troop
Private graveside services will be held at the convenience of the family.
