Julia Elizabeth "Betty" Place, 94, of Tulsa, OK, passed away peacefully at her home, Friday, January 18, 2020. She was born in Schenevus, NY, on Tuesday, August 19, 1925, to Leslie H. Stevenson and Florence I. (Baldwin) Stevenson. Betty was preceded in death by her husband, of 69 years, George Seymour Place.
