Betty, You will be missed. I enjoyed talking with you and we shared a bond with ben. I know you will always be here in Vine valley in spirit. I will miss your straight forward talks.

Betty always shared her smile, and wisdom of nature, with hikes on the hill. This beautiful scene that caught her eye. Betty we will miss you greatly.
