MY SYMPATHY TO Betty’s family and all who loved her. She was a friend and a special lady. Remembering our happy, carefree high school days; there is a yellowing entry in a long ago written diary. Less than prudent activities. Well leave it at that. Connie Honey Dunn

Debbie and Gary, I am so saddened to hear of Betty's passing. As I relive the memories of my quarter-century in Mount Bethel, ALL of you are in them. Mom and Dad surely are riding that Honda Goldwing on Heaven's smooth roads. Peace and love to you.
