Myrtle Beach, SC Mrs. Betsy Rae Simpson, age 76, passed away at her home in the Socastee community of Myrtle Beach on Saturday, July 19, 2025. Born April 1, 1949 in New Milford, PA, she was the daughter of the late Albert Ernest Stockholm and the late Marzette Wilma Tennant Stockholm. Betsy was predeceased by her husband, Jack L.

Betsy worked as an office manager in the medical field with chiropractic and orthopaedic doctors. Both being widows, she and her sister Marzette lived together for several years in Gaston County, NC where one of their favorite pastimes was reading at the public library.
