Betty Curtis Foulks passed away peacefully on March 14, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born on December 10, 1945, in Fayetteville, North Carolina, Betty lived a life defined by quiet strength, unwavering devotion to her family, and generous service to her community.
After earning a Business Degree from Kings College in Charlotte, Betty began her career in payroll with Belk Store Services. She later partnered with her husband, Wayne, in operating Wayne’s Carpet Cleaning and Repair Service for more than thirty years, blending her professional skills with a deep commitment to their shared life and work.
Her community involvement was extensive and heartfelt. She served as secretary for her neighborhood association, her children’s PTAs, the Youth Bowling Association, and the Harding University High School Marching Band. Her many years of dedicated service earned her Lifetime Achievement Awards from both the Youth Bowling Association and the Marching Band.
Betty’s greatest joy came from caring for her husband, children, and grandchildren. She found quiet pleasure in knitting and crocheting, reading biographies of her favorite entertainment figures, attending live theater, and following her beloved soap operas. She cherished family holidays and vacations, moments that strengthened the bonds she held so dear.
She was preceded in death by her father, James Elwood Curtis, her mother, Minnie Curtis, her brother Charlie Curtis, and her son Randy Foulks. Betty is survived by her devoted husband, Wayne Foulks; her son Lane Foulks and wife Amy; grandchildren Alex, Ward, and Lillian; daughter Allison Levinsky and husband Chris Levinsky; granddaughter Nadya; Randy’s wife Jackie Foulks; her sister Peggy Brooks; brothers Wayne Curtis and Paul Curtis and wife Kathy Curtis; and many nieces and nephews who will always remember her kindness and generosity.
