We will miss this truly amazing woman. Everything she did was
magnanimous; even her laughter.
I remember spending cherished times with her and her family in Plymouth and those happy times are embedded in my memory forever.

The world needs a lot more Bette Hahns. Just a very nice, smart lady
whose middle name could easily have been "Class." My heart cries for her loss.
Meanwhile, surviving husband Bill hopefully can carry on... for his children, grandchildren, and many friends like me. Bill's middle name, also should be "Class"

We had the pleasure of meeting Bette 30 years ago when she sold us our first home in Marshfield. She was a wonderful woman who took great pride in her profession. She spoke affectionately of her husband Bill and her children. May the many happy memories you have of Bette comfort you during this difficult time.
