Dear Stokes and family,
Betty was always one of my favorite cousins. When I was a little girl,visiting the family, she always played with me, taught me how to eat fried oysters,and fed me wonderful goodies. The last time we were in NN was at least 10 years ago, and our fond memories will remain with us forever. Please know that our love, prayers and sympathy are with you all.
