My deepest sympathies on the loss of your mother, grandmother and sister. My father, Bill Qunell, worked with Bette's husband for many years. Laura and I went to school together. Your family has had more than than it's share of sorrow in the past few years. May God Bless you all and take comfort in knowing that Bette is with her heavenly family now.
