The entire Childers family loved her and the entire famik. You had more kids in your family than we did which was a rarity back then. We all knew one of the kids.
We will share with our mom Brenda who kept in touch with her all of these years. Love to all of you!

Ms. Hurley was my 1st and 2nd grade teacher at Frank Nicholas Elementary school. I just loved her. I will always remember her. She would always treat us to either a peppermint or butterscotch after our math test. She always loved her butterscotch’s. She was so sweet and I would often run into her at Krogers and she always had time to chat. My condolences.

She was a wonderful person, great teacher, such a caring heart. She helped by daughter when other teachers seemed to not care. We loved her.

I taught with Betty in the early 70's. She was an excellent mentor for me in my first year of teaching. Betty loved her students. All the staff loved and respected her. God's peace and comfort. Bonnie(Hamilton) Robinson.

I am so deeply saddened to hear of Mrs. Hurley’s passing. I was lucky enough to be in her last 2nd grade class before retirement. She was always so kind and fair and I always look back on my year with her fondly. When I would run into her throughout Jr high and High School she was always happy to see me and to let me know how proud she was. She was a special teacher, wonderful lady and a very special soul.

I met Betty through the Victoria Theatre Association many years ago. We volunteered together for numerous plays, concerts and lectures. Betty was a lovely lady, and I always enjoyed her company. We will miss her bright smile and upbeat personality very much. My thoughts go out to the family at this time.
