Betty was one of the sweetest people I have known. She always had a smile and a willingness to help ... My thoughts are with her family during this time... She will be missed.

I was very saddened to hear of Betty's passing. I have known Mike since 1976. He's one of the nicest men I have ever met and it was a pleasure working for him. When I decided to change jobs, he insisted that I choose my replacement and I chose Betty! That's when their romance began. I'm glad they had many happy years together and I will keep Mike, his sweet children and the entire family in my prayers.
