Bettie Lawrence Flash

I was lucky enough to have Bettie as my teacher at Carolina Friends School and at Chapel Hill High. She was a wonderful teacher, one of my all time favorites.

Our deepest condolences to the entire family.

Our hearts are with Bettie's family, in blessing and peace.

So glad I was able to meet Bettie. Although it was at end of her life and her memory was failing, her Spirit was strong as was her kind and loving presence. Keeping you all in my thoughts and wishing you peace.

Betty was a wonderful lady I was so blessed to have in my family's life. Someone who had so much Love to share with so many people. I so enjoyed coming to Carol woods to see my parents and always made sure to call and meet up with Betty. I always enjoyed the vista, her beautiful smile and her warm hugs.
