Always a smile, a ready family story, an easy laugh, a great lady.
She will definitely hear the word, "Well done, my good and faithfully servant."

You were so special to me as my aunt, my encourager, my spiritual mentor and my friend. I treasure our times together over the past 72 years.

Betty was a wonderful person. She was always welcoming to us and helped our daughter feel less homesick when she was at school at NNC. Betty will be greatly missed, even if were unable to get to Idaho as much as we would have liked.

Sincerest sympathy.
"Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace constantly in every way. May the Lord be with all of you."
