So Sorry to learn of Betty's passing quite by accident while on the North hunington FB page. She was my absoute favorite math teacher and viewed her as sort of an order sister when she was Miss Seitz,a student intern. She made such an impressionon me that when I attended the University of Pittsburgh in 72, I declared my major as education majoring in mathematics. I later switched over to civil engineering and graduated in 76 with a degree in that field. I have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area , with my husband Ed for the past 42 plus years. I think of her every now and then. My deepest condolences to her husband, Rick and family

Richard. Deepest sympathies to you and your family. I haven't seen Betty since leaving the bowling alley in 1996, but have fond memories. She was a good friend.
