How shocked we are; friends of Bette's exercise group at Baldwin. Bette was a wonderful and kind lady to all and we are very saddened we were so unaware of her plight. Much love to her family and our deepest condolences.

Tom and Chris, your mom was a wonderful lady. I will always remember her as helpful to me when I was a young man. Chris I still remember you when you worked with us in Stratford for the summer. God bless both of you and your families.
