Betsy Alice was born on January 10, 1943 to Henry Leroy and Alice (Ott) Chandler. She attended school in Fairmont, MN and graduated from Sauk Centre High School. Betsy married Clyde H. Jacobs Sr. on June 1, 1963 in Fairmont. They resided in St. Paul, MN for 46 years. Betsy worked as a CNA for 26 years at both Pleasant Hill and Marion Center. Her loving care for some patients continued into their transition to home health care where a great bond was formed. She and Clyde together taught many classes in Native American beadwork in their home and at schools. The beadwork was outstanding and was recognized by being on display at the Minnesota Historical Society. Betsy was an avid reader, enjoyed playing games, doing puzzles, and riding motorcycles. She had a huge heart, loved caring for others and always having her little dogs around the house. She and Clyde have lived in Faribault for the past six years.
She is survived by her husband of 51 years, Clyde H. Jacobs Sr. of Faribault; three children, Betsy (Mark) McDowell of So. St. Paul, MN, LeRoy (Kelly) Jacobs of No. St. Paul, MN, and Clyde (Charise) Jacobs Jr. of Pulaski, WI; her mother-in-law, Gretta Jacobs of Bowler, WI; brothers and sisters-in-law, Rosella Schaaf of Bowler, WI, Neil "Muncie" (Claudia) Jacobs of Shawano, WI, Euretta "Buzzi" Rollins of Bowler, WI, and Gearld "Bear" (Vickie) Jacobs of Amery, WI; and many other relatives and friends.
