Throw your burden,grief and anxiety upon God himself,
And he himself will sustain you.
Never will he allow the righteous one to totter.

Betty was a very good neighbor to me while I lived next door to her for seven years. I considered her a good friend. My sympathy goes out to her family and others who remember her.
