Dear Doug and family,
I worked at National Braille Press for over 12 years, along with Jennifer Gonyea, and I look back fondly on our lunches and interactions with your mom. Betty was a wonderful woman and always made Jen and I feel special in her company. She was so lovely to talk with and she shared many stories of her life and family, of which she was so proud. Betty was a steadfast supporter of NBP and it was a pleasure to have known her. Her generosity made a difference in this world and she will be remembered for her warmth, grace, and sense of humor.
