I am saddened to hear of Betty's passing. Betty and Ferd will forever be part of my fond memories as they were such wonderful friends of my Mom and Dad (Halley and Edith).
May you find peace in knowing your folks were terrific people who are surely missed.
Condolences to each of you.

To the Brubaker Family, What wonderful memories we have of living in the old farmhouse (where I was born) next to the new home your mom and dad had built. Ferd and Betty were always so kind to us, including us in their parties and square dances. Lisa loved "helping" Betty in her flower gardens around the house. We still have the little angel birthday candle holders your mom brought back from a trip abroad. We remember her at each birthday. I know you will miss your mom. I pray your...

Frank,Bob,Tom and Lorry,
We are saddened to hear of Betty's passing. We got a call from Liz Beckley informing us of her death. Our sympathies go to you and your families. Your mother was a very caring person and showed it by her community involvement.
Our families go back a few years and we share many memories of fun times. I wonder if Betty and Foonie have a heavenly bridge game going yet with Dale and Ellie!
Fondly,
Barbara and Bud Mangels

Frank, Bobby, Tommy, Lorry,
Please accept our condolences. Aunt Betty (and Uncle Foonie) meant a lot to me and to Beverly. We felt especially blessed by their attending our wedding in 1974.

My whole family is so very sorry to have lost Betty. She was such an enduring and endearing friend to dad(Wally, who died in '83) and mom(Caroline, who stayed in FL. this year) and to myself. For me she set the benchmark for simple elegance. When mom went into the peace corps - Betty was there for an "out to lunch." I will never forget the honesty and truth, which was so much one of her many great qualities, in one of the last conversations we had. It was last year...
