Mrs. C was a wonderful and caring lady who would make the best cup of coffee for Mike, Jeff, Micky and myself every morning before we stroll over to Mount Pleasant High School across the street. I will always miss her big smile!

Dear Marcia, Paul, Michael, and Ahuva, I'm so sorry to hear about Aunt Betty's passing. She really was the sweetest lady and always always welcomed me with a smile. I think of her every birthday (we shared ours April 28th) and will continue to think of her and her warmth and wonderful voice every year. Thinking of all of you. Baruch Dayan Emet.

So sad to See her go. She was the sweetest Lady I know. Always so serious about her children and when they would visit especially for her birthday. Always excited for the b/d parties and when they took her to the beach. This world would be a better place if people would have the love she always shared. I miss you betty already and love you dearly. Paladin won't be the same without you, betty. Love from your neighbor at bldg 3700.
