Lowell Grissom, the brother of the late Mercury, Gemini and Apollo astronaut Virgil "Gus" Grissom, posted on Facebook: Betty Grissom, Gus' wife, passed away at 91. She will be buried at Arlington [National Cemetery]. Elizabeth "Betty" Lavonne Moore and Gus Grissom were married in 1945. They had two sons, Scott and Mark. In Gus Grissom's words: "I met Betty Moore when she entered Mitchell High School as a freshman, and that was it, period, exclamation point! It was a quiet romance, as far as anyone could see, but a special closeness started then and has developed into something light years beyond the power of mere words to describe."  |
