Betty was a very special person. I worked with her at 1st National and she took me under her wing to be a better leader. I´ve used her mentorship many times in my years as an educator. She has always recognized me each time I would see her even though it had been years since we had seen each other. Prayers to each of you, she loved each of you and was always so proud of her family. The world has lost a great lady. Stephanie Anderson Millar
