A terrific lady. Always admired her zest for life. You will be missed ,Betty.

Betty was a special woman. Her talents were many, and she took great pride when she won awards for her jewelry displays. I believe her motto in life was a line from "Annie Get Your Gun -- Anything you can do, I can do better . . . " She truly will be missed. RIP, Betty.

Betty was a wonderful woman. Always up for an adventure! She will be greatly missed, especially by her friends at DCNN. We love you Betty! RIP
