Schrage Family, So sorry to hear about Betty's passing. Growing up it was always fun when my Dad would visit with your Mom & Dad. Such lovely people! Many a card game I watched with the Dellger gang playing cards.
Betty was always happy. The sweetest lady.
Keep the memoirs close to the heart.

Betty was our nextdoor neighbor for many years. We enjoyed numerous conversations at our fence when we would both be in our backyards. She was always so friendly and cheerful. We missed her when she moved and fondly thought of her often, as we think of her family now, with sincere sympathy, in her passing. She was a special lady.
