Not sure what to say?

My prayers are with you. Get well soon! LOVE, jANE sMITH

I saw Betty on "What's My Line" last night. Her occupation was that she owned a business curing ham. Then it was mentioned that she was the governors wife. She had signed in as Shingler. I was a very small child and remembered hearing their name in the news alot in the mid 70's. Anyway I thought she was a fine lady.

Prayers to all
God Bless

Mrs Talmage was truely a good woman and will be missed by the entire state of Georgia! We need more woman like her! I still love seeing her in Murder in Coweta county.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Betty Talmadge. Betty was truly a wonderful woman and she was a dear friend of my Father's, Charles Willis. My first and favorite cook book was Betty's, "How to Cook A Pig"! With fondest wishes to Betty's family~ Love, Worden Willis [email protected]

Thank you, Betty, for the wonderful memories I have of you. I got to know you and became your friend by working in your congressional campaign. That friendship continued and truly blessed my life. Thank you. You were one of a kind, Betty, truly inspirational, and you will not be forgotten.

Gene,

I was signing Jack's mother's guest book (Mrs. Lamb died on June 4) when I saw your mother's name.

I am so sorry you lost her. Please remember me to Herman, Tyler and Mit.

I have included my e-mail address and would love to hear from you once all this is behind you.

Love you and cherish our memories together.

What a wonderful person Betty was, and with a keen mind remembering everyone she met. The last time I saw Betty was at a funeral in McDonough. I said "Ms. Betty, do you remember the last time we met"? and she said, darling, it was at the Elder Hotel in Indian Springs eating some of those good vegetables! She was a grand jewell of Georgia....
