Betty was a lovely Christian woman. I know God said welcome, good and faithful child when she arrived at the gates of Heaven She raised her children to love the Lord with all their heart and soul. She shared God with all who would listen and you could see God in her daily life.

Diane, I am sorry for your loss, but I know you have comfort in knowing she now has a Heavenly body, without any blemishes. She is praising God, and worshiping the Lord she has been serving so faithfully for so long.

Betty it was a blessing to have known you and I am glad you have made it out of this world and into the arms of your Heavenly Father.

I would like to take a moment to express what a wonderful Lady Aunt Betty was, she was an Aunt by marriage and I remember when I was younger and around her I was able to learn from her and she was always willing to show and express her Love for Jesus to everyone around her. She will be greatly missed by all!!
