We take pleasure in knowing she is with Dad and all her friends. We can only imagine the sound of the banjo and Dad singing "show me the Way to Go Home."

Aunty May,
I missed saying good bye to you before you left on your journey. You will always be in my heart and I will always hear your laughter. I always admired you for the strong candid out spoken women that I heard in my youth and later on in our conversations. Say hello to Uncle, let the dancing begin again!!
Love always Betty & family ❤
