Bette was such a special person. My years living near her in Anchorage were special. She leaves such a legacy - her work in Anchorage, the fire dept., the bike path let alone her lovely family. She will be greatly missed by so many. Our thoughts and prayers are with Dick and the family. With deepest sympathy,
