Please accept my deepest sympathy in the death of Betty. I regret that I have not seen her in many years. However, I generally think of Betty and Bill in some special way every day. Charlie and I bought their home in Columbia when Bill was transferred to Sumter in 1967. We have loved this home. As much as I treasure her yard and as much as I enjoy the peace and happiness that gardening brings, I always visualize Betty's lovely hard scape and Bill's neat care taking. These lovely memories of Betty will be with me forever. I cherish the Aycock friendship. So sorry that I am not able to attend her service. I send my love to the family.

I only met Mrs Aycock once. My father and I took the flower arrangements from Caroline & Jon's wedding to her at the Presbyterian home. She recognized me immediately- as the sister of her grand-daughter-in-law. I am honored to have had the chance to meet her.
My prayers are with you all.

So sorry to hear of Betty's passing. I worked with Betty at Lexington Medical Center and Bill many years ago. Maybe 30 years! She was a special lady. May God bless each one of her family members at this time.

My deepest sympathy to the Aycock family. Revelation21:4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."

I knew Betty many years ago when I was in Coldstream Garden Club. She is the one who stopped by my house on her walk and invited me to the club. Betty was a trooper. Many good times and memories. May Betty rest in peace.
