My heart is broken. I had the opportunity to be reunited with Mrs Hertkorn twice this past year after not seeing her for about 20 yrs. I am in shock. She was the Sweetest, Liveliest, Most Beautiful Woman Ever. I was so happy to see her and had felt so warm and fuzzy talking with her. I thought it was special then, and now I know, it was a gift from God. To Mr Hertkorn, and Debbie I weep with you and my prayers are with you each and every day. Please know that your loving wife and Mom will forever be remembered. My sincerest wishes for peace for your family.

BETTY WAS A FAITHFUL FRIEND FOR OVER FORTY YEARS. I NEVER SAW WHEN SHE WAS NOT PERFECTLY DRESSED OR MADE UP AND I NEVER EVER SAW HER WITHOUT A SMILE. I'M GLAD SHE NEVER GAVE UP ON ME. SHE AND DON HAVE SUFFERED WITH US THROUGH MISCARRIAGES, THE DEATH OF WELL LOVED DOG FRIENDS AND OTHER STUMBLES ALONG LIFE'S PATH AS WELL AS WELCOMING OUR MIRACLE CHILDREN AND FOR HER MANY NEW GRANDCHILDREN. SHE SHARED MY OWN JOY OVER OUR FIRST GRANDCHILD IN JULY WHILE SHE WAS EXPERiencing troubles and sadness in her own. IT's so hard to believe I want listen to a happy voice saying Its BETTY when can we get together?
For now we have to struggle on without this special person beside us until the day we are greeted at Heaven's shore by a sparkling, smiling BETTY saying Its bee.n TOO long. I know you were greeted with great joy by your LORD, BETTY, and I believe He said Well done good and
faithful servant because you were that to all of us every day we knew you. REST WELL,DEAR FRIEND UNTIL THE DAY WE MEET AGAIN IN ETERNITY. GOD BLESS AND COMFORT ALL OF BETTY' S FAMILY IN THIS. SUDDEN AND SAD TIME OF GRIEF. Judy, Lou, Megan and Kevin Baker.

There doesn't seem to be the right words to describe how shocked and sadden we are to lose such a bright beatiuful person. Aunt Betty could out dance us all. She was so full of life. She cared so deeply for her family. She always made you feel welcomed and loved. My Christopher had the opportunity to go to CCNS and see her in action as a loving teacher. She taught all of us the example of a loving marriage, amazing mother, and devoted Mom Mom. She was an amazing cook too. We will always think of Aunt Betty when we make Taco Salad and Mud Pie. Aunt Betty you made life brighter and we will forever miss you!

Dear Uncle Don and Family,
We are so sad knowing Aunt Betty is no longer with us. I can only imagine how heartbroken all of you are right now. However, we all are blessed to have had such a caring, vibrant, sassy, kind, and giving Aunt in our lives. She meant a lot to many people; and we will never forget her beauty, both inside and out.
We will continue to keep you and all of your family in our thoughts and prayers. We send you love, peace, comfort and happy memories to get you through this difficult time.
Much love,
Bill & Betsy Karl
