Standridge Family: We hope that you will accept our condolences at this time of the loss of a Mother, Sister, Grandmother and a Friend as well. Betty was also our friend, and classmate, during our school years at Alamance High School in southeast Guilford County. She was always eager to encourage others, and wanted to see happiness in the lives of others. We pray for God to comfort and give peace to her family during this time and the days ahead.
In Christ,
