Betty Jo (Cole) Goff

Betty Jo (Cole) Goff, 88, passed away peacefully on August 2, 2026.

Visitation will be held at Sneed-Carnley Funeral Chapel in Lampasas on Wednesday, September 2, from 9 am to 10 am.  Graveside services will follow at 10 am at Oak Hill Cemetery in Lampasas.

Betty was born at Rollins Brook Hospital on February 2, 1938, to James "Clyde" Cole and Zelda Fae (Jordan) Cole.  She graduated from Lampasas High School and was a high-scoring basketball player.

Betty is survived by her daughter, Debbie Austin Dorff, and her husband, Brad, of Austin, TX; and their two children, Cody Dorff and wife Samantha of Houston, and Cassy Dorff of Nashville, TN.  Betty also leaves behind three beautiful great-grandchildren, Landon, Liam, and Ava Dorff of Houston, and a niece, Stephanie Satterfield of Cameron, TX.

Betty was preceded in death by her parents, Clyde and Zelda Cole; her son, Ray Austin; her husband, Roy "Rick" Goff; and her brother, Clyde Ray "Sonny" Cole.

Betty was an avid sewer and enjoyed making quilts and projects for her home.  She especially loved embroidering and making gifts for friends.  But what Betty enjoyed most was seeing her grandchildren and great-grandchildren; she loved each one of them very much and was a great Mimi.

Betty and her husband, Rick, of 43 years, loved to travel internationally, and when they were back home, they enjoyed movies and a nice dinner out.  

Betty will be missed immensely.
