I was just having my coffee and grabbed my phone to call you; like so many other times over these past months. Then my stomach flips and my eyes begin to tear. I miss you so much! Not a day goes by without thinking of you. I miss your voice....

I'm so saddened to hear Betsy has passed. I remember Betsy and her Mom from working at UMass. Betsy was one of the kindest, most genuine people I have ever known.

By far THE CUTEST GIRL I EVER KNEW...1976 - 1981 BJH, BHS. Seems maybe Betsy gave of herself so much in recent years that the Universe took her back home for a rest. I have a clear picture in my mind of 1978 Betsy. I loved her so much back then. She made my days happy.
