Aunt Bettie was an angel to me. She was one of the most loving, kind, gentle persons I have ever known. She always was up front and you always knew where she stood on everything and for that I greatly admired her.

The greatest joy is that Grandma BB is with the Lord and in our future. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. She accepted and believed in the Lord Jesus Christ.
She will always be in our heart for Grandma BB walked in loving-kindness and mercy. I use to call Grandma BB, The Golden Girl! Yes, she was more precious than gold. Forever loved Grandma BB. Grand son Lyn

Meme, I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss. I wish Mia had the opportunity to have gotten to know her great-great grandmother. Oftentimes I hear how people mention how she resembles her. May you be comforted by your friends, family, and most importantly, God during this loss.
