I'm sorry for the lost of your mother, Betty. I am treasurer of the Auxiliary to VFW 67 which your mother was a life time member. For some reason her name has stood out for me when going through the membership. I was sad to read of her passing. Ethel Lansdale Auxiliary send our deepest sympathy.

enjoyed working with betty and carolee at SCO. I really enjoyed our trips to skiing at Boreal. I learned a lot about the history of the SIERRA from her.

To Marie and family, my deepest sympathies on the passing of your mother. I remember her from SCO as a very kind and gentle person. She always had a smile on her face. No words can take away the pain of losing one's mother, but may it comfort you to know your are being thought of and all of you remembered in my prayers. God be with you during this most difficult time.

I love you mom and I've missed you dearly! I know you are with dad and grandma now and at peace. You are my best friend and we share a lot of memories with working at State Controllers and playing with our little trips. I keep you close to my heart, always. Although most of your friends have gone before you, you made new friends and continued to add to your family member such as with Liana and her family. You've lead a blessed life and I'm proud to have shared in it.
My children and grandchildren are blessed to have known you. Four generations is a true testament to love and life! Although not a s close and strong in relationship as you would've liked, the family you and dad built demonstrates your legacy. You continue to be my inspiration, my guidance, my friend, and my mom!
Please give hugs to dad and grandma ... I miss you all.
