When I think of "cousin" Betty, a smile comes to my face. I so enjoyed spending time with her to see what she would say, and she would always make me laugh. She was there for every major event in my life....a constant presence and a true friend. She will be deeply missed. A great lady...the Best.

You were one of my "angels". Someone who was good to the core. Someone who took on obstacles and overcame what many others would concede to. Love to you and your sister Pat who tirelessly cared for you and loved you. You will be missed by many.
