Not sure what to say?

It's taken me quite a while to find the words to write here. I didn't get to know Grandma Betty like most of her other grandchildren, but from what I did know about her, she was very caring and there will never be another camping trip that is the same without her. I only wish I had been able to tell her about her great grandson before she passed away. I love her and she will always be a memory thats not far away.

Back in the day (1982-1987) I worked with Betty at Manley's. This was my first job away from home while I attended college. Everyone called her "Mom". I have fond memories of working there. I keep in touch mostly through her children. I am glad to have known her. It was nice to be able to say good bye to Betty in my mind and have fellowship with her family.

It's been two weeks today since mother passed. I still am confused and still can't quite fathom she is gone and watching our dad lost in lonliness makes it that much harder. I pray that he will find comfort in knowing that they really did share a connection and a relationship that at times was hard. He took on all of her kids and treated them as his own. I will honor her memory in making sure that he knows that she loves him through us.

Grandma was Great. Just flat out awesome. I really appreciated how well she and grandpa took care of me when I was younger. All the conversations we would have about everything.
I remember her always standing at the kitchen sink, staring out the window looking at her beautiful flowers.
I saw pictures of her when she was a lot younger, she was gorgeous.
When she got older she was still beautiful.
Though she is not here physically, She Is here spiritually watching over all of her...

AS TIME TIME GOES ON I KNOW THE HURT I FEEL INSIDE WILL FADE BUT, THE MEMORYS I HAVE OF MY MOTHER NEVER WILL. SHE WAS A VERY SPECIAL LADY TO ALL WHO KNEW HER AND, I ONLY HOPE THAT I CAN TRY TO BE AS LOVING AS SHE WAS IN HER HONOR.

I so sorry for your family's loss. I know how close you all are. Kaylee has missed her and will miss her terribly. You are all in my thoughts.

I will miss my Grandmother terribly she was one of the few constants in my life. She taught me so much about life and business. I will never forget those days in Manley's Cafe as a little girl helping Grandma roll out pie crusts and filling them with fruit, and after the pies were made, Grandma always let me play with the dough and make cinnamon/sugar crust as a special treat.

Thankyou Grandma for always believing in me and helping me to realize that deep inside of me is a strong...

To the family and friends of Betty; My sincere condolences. When Betty was in high school in Anaconda, Mt,Barbara Chapman, Marian Glenney, and several of us had good times together. I lost track of Betty, but Barbara kept a eye on her through Ramona.My rememberences are of fun times, and a good heart. God bless all of you. My sorrow at your loss.

My grandmother was the strongest woman I have ever known next to my mother. She had one of the biggest hearts, always giving people multiple chances. She was intelligent, funny, witty, gracious and ever so caring. She had this way about her that when you were down in the dumps she could pick you back up again. She always let you know how she felt, even if you didn't want to hear it. She made you realize your "problems" really weren't so bad afterall. Grandma always had the juciest gossip. She...
