I'll never forget Mrs. Womack. She pierced my ears for on 12th birthday, with icecubes, a needle, and my Moms topaz earrings. I never felt a drop of pain, that was 33 years ago and the holes are still there... Good Bye Mrs. Betty Womack, May you be at peace. David, Violet, Martin, and Tom, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My mother was a resident of Lynn Shores for over 8 years. She resided on the same wing that Betty worked on. Betty treated all the residents on her wing as family. In all the times I visited I never saw Betty without a smile. The only time I ever saw her get upset is when I tried to give her a ceramic frog. I found out in a hurry she hated frogs. Betty will be missed by all who knew her. my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Betty was an icon on Unit 1 at Lynn Shores. Working with her for over 7 years was an entertaining experince. She always had a smile, a laugh and a joke. My deepest condolences to all of her family.
