On Christmas Eve night 1933, in Sarasota, FL, Norma Shearer Bennett was born to Joseph and Grace Weatherford Bennett. She was immediately dubbed "Billie" which she remained her entire life. Her family moved to DeLeon Springs when Billie was a child. She spent long hours at the Springs, learning to dive like Esther Williams, and on the river and many lakes in the area.
After graduating from DeLand High School in 1950 at the age of 16, Billie married and started a family. She was an excellent seamstress and knitter and enjoyed baking cakes for special occasions. In addition to raising three children, she worked at Strawn's Packing House, was a secretary at DeLeon Springs Elementary School, and later was an owner and real estate broker at Loconte Real Estate. She also volunteered as a 4-H, Girl Scout, and Cub Scout Leader.
Billie loved gardening, traveling, shopping, eating out with friends (many of whom counted on her for advice), and riding her Tennessee Walkers. Mostly, she loved spending time with family, even taking them all on a cruise for her 80th birthday.
Billie passed away peacefully on December 3, 2022. She was preceded in death by her daughter Deborah Dreggors, brothers Jack Bennett and Virgil Neal, and sister Fern Locke. She is survived by her daughter Sue Dreggors, son and daughter-in-law, Tim and Diana Dreggors, six grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren, nephew Harry Neal (Paula), and great niece Allison (David) Van Dyne. The family will have a private memorial in her honor.
