We love you Betty Boop! What joy you brought to the Home with your crazy antics. I will never forget the plant that you threw down the laundry chute! And only because the dresser didn't fit. Now you are on the ride of your life! Much better than Playland where you spent your happiest moments. Hope you take Jesus on the ferris wheel! It was quite an experience going with you and one we will never forget. Love you Betty!
