Published in the Chicago Suburban Daily Herald on 9/21/2006. Betty Mae Page of Mundelein A casual garden service (perhaps bring an umbrella) for Betty Mae Page, 80, will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, at the home of her daughter, Shelley Hoselton, 29538 N. Illinois Route 83, Mundelein. A visitation will be held for one hour before and also after the service. Interment will be later in Brook, Ind., where she will rest alongside her parents. Betty passed away Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2006, at the home of her daughter in Fremont Township. She was born March 25, 1926, in Brook, Ind., and had been a Mundelein resident for 50 years. A graduate of Brook High School, Joliet Junior College and the Patricia Stevens Finishing School in Chicago, Betty became a pin-up girl during World War II and would inspire others by holding modeling workshops on her own. Betty became a personal shopper at Baskins in Chicago during the early 1950s and for 14 years, ran a coffee business for Compact Coffee. In later years, she ran a landscaping business called Lawn and Flower Designs by Betty, where she would help you "enhance your nest." She appeared on Hard Copy and in magazine articles as the "other" Betty Page. After surviving metastatic liver cancer for the past 2½ years, Betty's family and friends would like to thank Dr. Riad Salem for his miraculous therasphere treatments and the staff at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. This allowed Betty and Shelley the opportunity to travel to Las Vegas twice, cruise Alaska, attend an Easter egg hunt at the Playboy Mansion and experience a safari in Kenya. Surviving are her daughter, Shelley (Doug) Hoselton of Mundelein; Betty's sister, Wilma (Ray) Corbett of Brook, Ind.; her babies, Bruiser and Reggie; and her prayer partner and special friend, Nellie Sonza-Novera. She was preceded in death by her parents, Alonzo and Minnie Noland and her brother, Howard, who lost his life at Pearl Harbor in 1941. Arrangements were made by the Burnett-Dane Funeral Home, Libertyville, 847-362-3009.
