Remembering Aunt Betty and Uncle Vinton brings pride and heartfelt warmth to my world. Examples of two people who truely loved one another deeply for sixty years. The characters of these superlative human beings bolstered the respect I embrace for our family and the human race. They were very much loved. Lorie Ginader 9/09/2020

Betty Spencer, Aunt Betty to me... was one half of an exemplary marriage. She and Uncle Vinton were always in love and placed one another above all others. Aunt Betty had a very distinctive voice, pleasant and individualist. When she spoke you would not mistake it for anyone else.
She was a lovely person, a god loving credit to her community and her family.
She will always be remembered with love, respect, and honor.
Sincerely,
Dr. Ginader

Cousins,
My heart is full morning for once again we have lost someone beautiful. Aunt Betty made the world seem brighter, kinder and secure. I will miss her but I know reuniting with uncle Vint is something that will make the angels sing. I love you all very much and knowing you have each other and extended family helps to reassure me that our family will hold the bond that our beloved fore fathers began. We'll all hold fast in our faith and make them proud.
Your Cousin,
Lori Ginader, Lead, SD

Carl, So sorry to read of your Mom's passing. She was a sweet lady. We'll be praying that God will comfort you and your family for your loss and we'll be rejoicing for Betty and celebrating her arrival in her new home. (Mom is probably talking her ear off and showing her around heaven at this very moment!) Don't hesitate to call if there's anything we can do for you. We love you and miss you! Mike, Rosie & Steven
