Betty and Rocky were so supportive of me for adopting my Christopher, that they took time from their travels to visit me in Greenville, South Carolina in 1996. They came to my home and we shared lunch and the baby. They oohed and aahed over him, and I will never forget how Betty put her arms around me and told me she was proud of me. I loved her so. My deepest sympathy to all.

93 years of life for Ms. Elizabeth should be worn as a badge of honor for the family. That is simply beautiful. I hope during this rough time you all are met with love and peace, comforted by the many memories youve shared.
