God blessed me greatly in getting to meet Betty (and Jane) through Roberta Renner's Bible studies after I became a true Believer. I treasure her books and drawings. What a joy to know that she is now with her Lord and Savior. I extend my prayers of sympathy and comfort to her family. Sarah (St.Clair) Wing, Ooltewah, TN.

I met Betty and Jane through my employment at Roanoke Public Library. I helped them with selection of music for several of their projects. Betty was such a dear, sweet person and I am blessed to own several of her books. I will always remember her smile and how the love of Christ shown from her eyes. God rest your soul as you enter paradise.

The world has lost a true child of God. Heaven rejoices in welcome of this dear one. I cherish happy memories of times spent in Betty's presence and am grateful to still have her books containing her wise words and lovely sense of humor. Until we meet again......
