Dear Kate and other family members:
I am sure you are well aware, Betty was truly "one of a kind" with an undying spirit to uphold what was right. She and I had many good times together and we always felt a kindred spirit. Being friend's with Betty was like breathing a breath of fresh air. I know at this time the Angels are truly enjoying her wit and her charm.
Each of you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God hold your hand and comfort you.
Love and understanding sympathy,
Mary Baechler and family
