Bettina Plevan Betsy was always a gracious hostess to extended family and friends. Her style and smile remaind a blessed memory.

Betsy was a tremendous inspiration to lawyers and the clients she served, and will be sorely missed. May her memory be a...

Our heartfelt condolences to the Plevan Family on the loss of their beloved, Betsy. The Plevan's have been an integral part of the Gateway family and we mourn alongside them. We remember and honor Jeff today and always. We hold Ken, Bill, Sara, and Ariel in our hearts during this difficult time.

I was a Wellesley College classmate of Betsy's and loved knowing her many years ago. I so admire what she accomplished with her legal career. Forever proud of her. Condolences to her family members on your loss of Betsy - but she is still with you in your memories.

I worked with Betsy when I was a young associate at Cahill Gordon. She was kind, compassionate and generous with her time and I considered her a role model of a successful female attorney. My deepest sympathies to her family. I hope you take comfort in knowing how many lives she touched in a positive way and that her memory is a blessing to you.
