May Memories be a Blessing to all as they are for me. Aunt Betty sang Make of Our Hearts One Heart (from West Side Story) at Kevin and my wedding 35 years ago. She did a wonderful rendition and it was only afterwards that I discovered that she really didn't feel well that day but didn't want to disappoint me. I know our loss is the Angels gain as she sings with them now.

I have memories of a smiling and laughing younger sister when our family would visit my Aunt Martha. Fond memories keep us going and I am so sorry for your loss and our Leisure World loss of a fellow resident neighbor. Barbara Bergmann

Aunt Betty (Nora Elizabeth) was a gifted musician who passed her talents on to her offspring. I remember her beautiful voice singing, and I recall her frequent laughter. And she loved to talk about the time spent with her little great-grandson! God bless dear Aunt Betty.

My condolences to the family for the loss of your dear loved one. Everything your loved one was...kind, loving and thoughtful will live in the hearts and memories of those that loved them. May these memories comfort you during your grieving process.
