I knew Betty when I was a little girl. My mother, Marilyn Arenson, was her model for both paintings and photography. My mom, now also gone, held her very dear. She was certainly a gifted artist and I would love to discover where some of her paintings of my mother are now located. If you know please contact me. Thanks so much.

I didn't know Betty, but understand that she was technically my aunt a decade before I was born, and I heard fond stories of her through my father, Marvin. I occasionally thought of trying to introduce myself at some point in connection with the genealogy I've sporadically worked on, and am sorry that I never did so. On behalf of the family that provided her with her married name, I would like to extend my condolences.
