Bettie Ward was one of the most gracious, full of life, kind, and generous ladies we’ve been blessed to know. As next door neighbors, we enjoyed her love and the way she always made us Cantu kids feel special (especially when we got to partake of her homemade cookies)!

Brad and Kent please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of your mother. She was a nice and sweet lady. I remember when she would cheer for us when we played baseball at the Northwest YMCA in the 1960s. God bless you all.
