I am so saddened to hear of Betty's passing. We worked together for years at Davis and Geck. She was my recruit for Mary Kay also. We had some fun times together. I could always rely upon her giving me strong and solid advice.
God bless you.....Myrna Berry

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
