I will miss Betty very much. She was quite a lady. I had the pleasure of knowing her from the day I was born. In 1972 she was the Mistress of Ceremonies at our wedding and we will never forget everything she did for us.
After Betty moved to Poquoson She, my mother Helen and myself would meet on Saturday's for breakfast. Betty will always be in our hearts.

Betty will be sadly missed by all her friends & church members. Betty was one of my supervisors at Buxton Hospital School of Nursing in 1949-50. Then a dear friend at Hampton First Presbyterian Church. She was quite a girl. I know that she will be attending Christ's family in Heaven.

Hilda and I are so saddened by Betty's passing. She always waved as we passed each other. We were walking by when the EMTs and police arrived. Although Hilda's condition prevents us from attending the service, we always hurt when our friends hurt. Our prayers are with you. Peace, Joy and Love from Hilda and Jim Granger

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.
