Betsey Ward Harrison, 53, peacefully passed on Sunday, April 28, 2019 at Philip Hulitar Hospice Center. During her final days Betsey was surrounded by cherished family and friends.

Betsey resided in Barrington and Bristol, RI for most of her life. She graduated from Barrington High School, Lasell College and Katherine Gibbs going on to work at GTech, KPMG, A. Harrison Mfg., Citizens Bank and most recently at her family business, the Picket Fence.
She was a lifelong member of the Dunes Club, her “happy place.” She loved her pugs, especially Rex who was by her side for 14 years. She was an enthusiastic fan of the Red Sox and Patriots.
During her exceptionally long and courageous battle with cancer Betsey was a pillar of strength, never giving up the fight. Her smile and zest for life were inspiring. She was a fine example of class and grace.
