Sorry to hear about Betty Jean's passing, We have a conflict for the funeral so we can't be there. Would like to see all the family for what may be the last time--hope not! I still remember coming to their wedding--Wayne was singing in a barber shop group at the time and sang several songs. Will try to keep in touch thro. Dick Mike and Alice Scott.

Karen and Family,
It's been a few years since our paths crossed, but I never forget the good folks I meet. Betty was one of the good ones -- finding joy in her everyday life with family and friends. In honor of Betty I know you will continue to love and support each other. Please know that I'm sending prayers your way.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to your family in this time of loss . My friendship with Dave and Wayne has gone back for many years, though I was never able to meet Betty Jean. She must have been richly blessed by God to have such wonderful people around her.. May Gods love surround your family today and in the days to come. I will keep your family in our prayers.
