Betty was a dedicated , caring nurse and longtime fellow employee in the CCU here at Einstein . We are so saddened to hear of Bettys passing so soon after her retirement. She often spoke lovingly of her family , pets and her love of art. She always brought in treats for our staff the Betty Bowl as it was referred too! We will think of Betty often and remember the happy times we spent with her during her many years at Einstein working side by side. Keeping Betty and her entire family including her beloved animals in our thoughts and prayers!
