Friendships tell their own story about the depth of one's personhood. Betty was a special Scottish and forever friend to May Robertson Halliday and to May's family. Many a special holiday was spent in Medford with the Lindonen's. Betty will be remembered for her graciousness, her easy laugh and her zest. Many more memories will always keep her with us.
Love from one of May's children

Auntie Betty was amazing, even in to her late eighties, she still managed to come to Scotland on holiday to see all her family. She was always in touch and cared about everyone; her brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces. She will be sadly missed. She meant a lot to all of us. With Love, Sandra and Rina.

Betty was a very special person. She had the ability to make each and every one who knew her to feel special. Betty became my "adopted mother" after my own passed. It was always fun to sit and enjoy "supper and tea" with her and Rina. Betty will be missed, but if anyone deserves a rest, it is Betty. Love and prayers to the family.

Auntie Betty will be a great loss, she was my mother's twin sister with a strong link to our mother. She will always be remembered with kindness and love.
