    Obituary- Lambotte, Elizabeth 1
    Elizabeth M. "Betty" Lambotte, 94, of Topeka, Kansas, passed away peacefully on August 22, 2025. Born on March 23, 1931, in Topeka, she was the cherished daughter of the late John and Catherine Jacobson.

    Betty's life was a testament to love, faith, and service, values she cherished deeply throughout her time with us. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Norman; sons, Richard and Kenneth; grandchildren, Cody and Aaron; and siblings, Bobby, Johnny, Donald, Kay, Rosemary, and Billy.

    Betty is survived by her sister, Dorothy; her son, Todd; six grandchildren; and thirteen great-grandchildren, who will carry on her legacy of love and faith. Each of them holds onto the warmth of her spirit and the lessons she imparted through her unwavering commitment to family.

    A dedicated educator and mentor, Betty worked as a paraprofessional at Delia Grade School and Rossville Elementary School, where she made a significant impact on the lives of countless children. Her devotion extended beyond the classroom; she served faithfully as a CCD teacher and youth group leader at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church in Rossville, where she was not only a devoted member but a guiding light for many. Her life reflected service, generosity, and an outstanding commitment to her community. An active volunteer and a generous supporter of many local causes.

    The community will gather to celebrate her life at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church, located at 703 Main St in Rossville, for a rosary to be recited for Betty at 5:00 PM on Friday, August 29, followed by a visitation until 7:00 PM. A funeral Mass will be offered at 10:00 AM on Saturday, August 30, also at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church. Following the Mass, Betty will be laid to rest at Mt. Calvary Cemetery in St. Marys at 11:30 AM, with a luncheon to follow in Dekat Hall.

    Elizabeth M. Lambotte will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend whose faith and compassion left a lasting impression on all who knew her. Her legacy of love and service will forever shine bright in the hearts of her family and friends.
