The news comes from People.com who spoke with her agent and dear friend Jeff Witjas. Witjas confirmed the news of her passing by sharing with People, “Even though Betty was about to be 100, I thought she would live forever. I will miss her terribly and so will the animal world that she loved so much. I don’t think Betty ever feared passing because she always wanted to be with her most beloved husband Allen Ludden. She believed she would be with him again.”
