Well, where do I begin, how about 1955 when I met a family that would stay forever in my heart. Walking down the road to the halfway mark, with one, or more of your kids whether from your house Betty, or from Grandma and Grandpa's, times we were on time to get home, or a little late, you still loved each of us. I didn't see you much over the past several years, but memories are still fresh in my mind. Barbara, Joyce, Pasty, Kathi, my prayers and thoughts are with each of you and all your family. Hold all the memories close and family closer. with all my love

Praying for Gods comfort for the ones she leaves behind. She is not hurting any more but I know your hearts are so heavy right now. I have some great memories of Betty and all of her daughters. Love and peace to you all, Brenda
