Dear Murray Family,
I am really going to miss seeing Miss Betty at Milepost 5. It was always so nice to see her and talk to her. I am blessed to have known both her and Dickie for the last 4 years. The wonderful memories, thoughts, and prayers will get you through this difficult time. God Bless your family.

Aunt Betty Sue's cheerful laugh will always ring in my heart! And I will
never forget her dedicated and unconditional love she gave to you and your brother, David.

We have the blessed assurance we'll

It is with deep sympathy that I learned of this late news. Betty Sue was always a smiling ray of sunshine when she and Dickie would visit. Betty - thank you for your sweet spirit and I pray you are well and sweetly reunited with all who had gone before. I ask that the Lord bless you and your family and know that many are keeping you in our prayers. May the Lord surround all left here with His love and kind mercy and continue to bless us with His love as much as you did with your love. God bless. Sincerely, Darrell Dunford

John,

I was so sorry to hear about your mom. I always enjoyed being around her and your dad. They made a great couple. I know this has been a very tough year for you and Beth, but I know that she is at peace with your dad. Please take care.

My condolences to you John, Beth, Caleb, and all the family members. In October, the Midlothian High School Class of 1953 met and, at that time, we heard the sad news about Betty Sue's illness. She decided not to attend and several of us have kept in touch since and are saddened by the turn of events. Betty Sue was part of our "female group" in high school and remained a good friend for all these many years. She was fun, intelligent, and loved her family. Memories are forever and one in particular was that beautiful smile! I will miss her.

We are so sorry to hear about Betty. She was such a delightful lady to be around.
You were such a special part of your Mom's life and she was so proud of you. You brought so much joy to her and that is something she would always want you to remember.
