Dear Frank and the Banks children,

We are very saddened to hear of Betty's passing. I will always remember the great humor Betty had during Auntie Kate's Thursday night bridge club. We all had great times together. Betty was a wonderful Wife and Mother. Ernie & I will keep her in our prayers and will offer our week-end Mass for her. Betty, you are at peace now.
