Dearest Betty I made it to your Crossings what a glorious place it is. I love the way that you would remind the minister not to run over on the sermon whenever the Houston Oilers had a game on. From the audience would come your gentle voice suggesting that there was a game today. I find comfort in knowing where you were in your final days. You were like a second mom not only to me but too many others. You had such a wonderful way of spotting those who perhaps were not brave enough to step forward and ensured that all were included. Always in our hearts and memories you will be thank you for so much. In Christ-Bari & Jackie
that each was included or had the opportunity . You have left your visions on the heart of many. I know your family carry so many memories and so much love. Always in our hearts and our memories Jackie

It has taken this long to even sign this book. As we looked at photos we had taken together with my family and with you--the grandchildren pointed to you Dear One--so young then--Charlie now 5, pointed to you. They felt your profound spirit and it was imprinted on their hearts. Tears flow--you knew my heart and encouraged, loved, touched, accepted, watched over and inspired so many "Just the way we are". Miss you-- thankful you are free from pain. You will be proud to learn Seabrook UMC is being supported successfully during these days. All of you who so influenced me (and many others) are Angels- Spiritual Warriors now preparing Our Welcome-- "Gone to Glory" yet forever walking with us. God truly blessed me and mine when you reached out to me.

I first met Bettye in 1977 when I was 13. I was friends with Natt Vaughn and was in the Seabrook Chancel choir. She welcomed me into the youth group. Later she designated me as the soloist on the many youth retreats to Camp Tejas. Ted and I were once councilors. Ryan and I were both in youth group and later were in Natt's summer musical, Carousel in 1981.. l remember when Bettye came to work at Friendswood Methodist Church where she continued with the youth retreats.. I also fondly remember the many times she and I talked when I had troubles in my life. To Ryan, Ted.... I will never forget your mother... a very kind, beautiful, and loving woman.... Danny Ryan

To the family of Ms. Bettye: I am so very sorry for your loss. I was so very saddened to recently hear of her passing. Ms. Bettye and her husband lived in the apartment under mine in Seabrook for several years and I loved her like a second mother. When my daddy passed away and my mother came to live with me the first person I introduced her to was Ms. Bettye. They became very good friends until my mothers passing. I have always stated that I don't know what my mother would have done without her. What a beautiful and wonderful lady she was. I know she was welcomed to Heaven with open arms! I shall miss her. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time.

My favorite memories of Bettye include how she made me feel. Welcomed. Remembered. Always glad to say hello. Valued. Loved.
She loved to reminisce about the time my son Jake and her granddaughter Sarah were part of a live nativity at Seabrook Methodist. They were likely 3 or 4 years old. Jake was a shepherd. I don't recall who was officially designated as Mary, but Sarah and another little girl were both quite fond of the doll representing baby Jesus. A little tussle ensued during the service. :)
I feel blessed to have known Bettye. I will always remember her love and will strive to love others as she did.

My sincere condolences. May the God of all comfort strengthen you all during this difficult time. Rom 15:4
