Thomas Dale Bettger

Dear Kathy,
I will always think of Tom when we pass by the Inga-Shaba lines. The world needs more people like Tom who had a heart for Africa and whose skills can be used to build this part of the world.
I have fond memories of visiting Tom's family as a child, and we cherish the time we spent in your beautiful home in Idaho. I will certainly miss communicating with him by e-mail.
The Lord grant your grace as you adjust to this trajic loss. Que...

Mrs. Bettger,

On behalf of myself and my office staff I wish you heart felt condolences.

Chère Kathy,
C'est avec beaucoup de tristesse que nous avons appris, par l'intermédiaire de Chris Mackanic, le décès de Tom. Nous sommes vraiment désolés pour vous, Molly et Andy. Bien que cela fasse longtemps que nous n'avons plus été en contact, je pense souvent avec plaisir à notre rencontre et aux échanges d'élèves que nous organisions entre Meylan et Boise. Je me souviens de Tom comme d'une personne vraiment très gentille et agréable. Caroline, Michaël et Marine se joignent à moi...

Chère Kathy
Quelle nouvelle désarmante !!!!!!!!!
Nous sommes bouleversés d'apprendre le décès de Tom. Les accidents de la route sont terribles et nous rappellent douloureusement que notre vie peut être très courte et que nous devons tout mettre en œuvre tant que l'on a la santé pour être des témoins de l'amour du Christ, des artisans de paix et d'amour !!! Tom a fait partie de ceux là mais sa disparition brutale reste pour nous tous une douleur difficile à accepter. Nous gardons un...

Kathy, Molly, and Andrew, I have very fond memories of Tom and your family at Mountain View School. Tom was always a great parent who spent lots of quality time at school with his children. May your knowledge of his devotion to family give you peace in this time of grief.

Dear Kathy and family. I was so saddened to hear about Tom's premature death. I was watching the news tonite and it mentioned how 3 cyclists had been killed in less than a months in Boise recently. The first thing I thought of was how kind Tom was and how he always took time to ask how "I" was doing. I always saw him as a real people person. The quality that comes to mind regarding Tom was how kind he was and he seemed to have a very soft heart. I promise to pray for you and your family...

Molly, My condolences and sympathies on the loss of your Dad, who as depicted in the summary, loved the Lord and live his life for Him. What a great legacy! My prayers are with you and your family. May God's peace be with you. Ray Burg(Northbrook,IL)

Kathy,
My heart goes out to you on the passing of Tom. Knowing he is with Our Lord is so awesome. As you probably know I lost Mark 2 1/2 years ago, and knowing he is with Our Precious Lord is so comforting to me. However, this grief journey is so very difficult. The Lord is so very magnificent and His Love surpasses Literally Anything that we must go through. So, may His all so loving arms surround you and hold you during this time.

Kathy Shadle

Molly,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your father. He was a wonderful man with such a passion for Christ. I pray that God will wrap Himself around you to get you through this difficult time. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
