To Dear Aunt Betty's Family: Years pass, but the kindness and the inner beauty of one human being still stands, continues to light the path with her loving kindness, her non-judgmental ways. To her family again my condolences on the loss of one of earth's finest treasures, God's gift, a wonderful mother, a very proud grandmother, a loyal and loving wife, a terrific aunt, and an inspiring friend to all friend and family. When you live a lot of years and look back there are few people who aspire to the inner beauty of Betty Kupczuk, she was just a natural, warm, kind, beautiful human being. Knowing Betty rests in peace, with a giggle and warm spot for all she meets; no greater lessons on earth could be taught by example but by this grand and beautiful woman. Aunt Betty, miss you always and forever.

Mom: My mother, my friend, how I miss you. I feel so priviledge to be your daughter - all the things you taught not just by words but by your actions. It's hard to believe one year has passed when it still feels like yesterday. I still remember our last conversation "George Clooney" and your laughter as they wheeled you down the hall. Little did I know that would be our last chat. I'm so glad I got the chance to tell you "I love you". You always were involved in our lives and I still reach for the phone to call you. I know you are in a better place and you're keeping an eye on all of us. I love you.

Mom: A year has passed, and still I find it hard to believe that your gone. You occupied such a large part of our daily lives, and your love and presence are missed so much. I wish we could have had more time together, but one day I know we will meet up again. I know you are watching over us, you are the perfect Guardian Angel. We love you and miss you.

Mom; Michele, Sam, Nate and I were by the cemetery on August 21, just 3 days before your 1 year anniversary. It was a very sad moment. Your passing was so unexpected and we didn't get to say a proper goodbye. It was unfair. We miss you so much. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Sammi made an attempt at making Pineapple Dream Bars, but they were not the same. There were so many things that I wished I had told you; things that I wished we had done. I love you; we love you so very much and will never stop remembering all of the good and not so good times that we spent together.

Dear Family: It has been a year since mom is gone, and I am certain it has been a trying year, with much sorrow, loss and a great wonderment of why? May you know I keep your mom's picture near me, I miss her as well, as she was indeed one of the most precious people who walked this earth. May God be keep you all well, and may there be some comfort in knowing how loved your mother truly was, and is still so fondly remembered.

Dear Jim, Deb, Jan and entire family:
First of all Jan, I can not thank you enough for calling me and telling me of your mother.
Many years ago, when your mother was to marry Uncle Joe, was when my life began. I was able to come to Calgary and babysit Jimmy and Debbie, and albeit by the time the wedding was over; I believe Uncle John had introduced me to alchohol and Jimmy and Debbie looked after me that first night. I was from a small town, and your wonderful mother told me, don't worry Donna, you will always find the place when you are looking after the kids, because I tied a red sock on the clothesline. At that time, your mom was living in a large complex, very scary to a small town girl. Over the years, as I got to know your mother more and more, I realized how beautiful your mother was, how absolutely beautiful her heart was. Over the years, she gained the undeniable greatest of respect from Aunt Staffie, who was the guardian of Uncle Joe, your father Jan. Your beautiful mother's heart loved every person, and was always the one person who "actually knew what unconditional love was all about" before people started to talk about it.
I was your mother's niece, because she had married my Uncle Joe. However, over the years, as much as I adored my Uncle Joe, I truly grew to love your mother.
We shared many good times, we shared a lot of special thoughts, we shared many tears, and we shared many memories and the most wonderful aspect that shone above all things about your mother was:
When Debbie first had her boys, your mother their grandmother not only loved them but she cherished them, then Jimmy you had your children, and even tho; I met them only once, I always knew everything about them, and Jan, your life and your marriage and family, including "Shawdow" were always talked about. We did not have to meet with you, your beautiful mother told us always about her beautiful children and beautiful grandchildren, and all the good things that happened. When not such good things happened she worried, and she fretted, and she prayed, and finally things would work out.
In a nutshell, you three children had the most marvellous mother, any one could ever have.
Your mom, had such a perfect loving heart, she was always trying to make things right between people. A quest often impossible, with impossible people.
Suffering from diabetis as badly as she did, and worrying as much as she did, after Uncle passed away, I spent a lot of time with her; but eventually I moved away; but brought my precious partner to meet her. Of all the people I wanted him to meet, it was my "Auntie Betty"; simply because she had the most beautiful heart in the world.
I learned much from your mother, she had so much to give. She loved children, she loved people, and she loved peace. I am sad she is gone; however; I know that she is in peace for when God made Angels that were to walk on this earth, your mother was one of them. A special angel indeed.

I was so happy to be able to visit with Betty recently when mom was in the hospital. I was even lucky enough to sample some of her head cheese that day that she had made. It was delicious. There are so many memories that I have of Betty and those I will cherish forever. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

So sorry to hear of Betty's passing. Was a dear friend that I worked with at Kmart for twenty years.
Two years ago she had a gathering of Kmart people in for coffee for me when came to visit from Moose Jaw.
Thoughts are with you all.
She was a lovely person.

We will miss Aunty Betty, she was a very special person in our lives. Russ immediately remembered her delicious lasagna and Angie remembered the time we went shopping and Aunty Betty worn her nylons clear through because we made so many miles that day. Gerry and I and the children spent a lot of time in Aunty Betty's house and it was second home to us many weekends.She has left us many wonderful memories and through her picture taking, she will never be forgotten in our minds and hearts.
