Sending all my love to my brothers-in-law, their wives, their children, Joyce and Mary. Thank you all for caring for her and keeping her home until she was ready to go home to God.
Betty (Momma B. as I called her) was a huge influence in my life after I moved to New City after Harry and I married. (Betty's oldest son whom she was predeceased by in 2014)
My fondest memories of her were the family dinners we had. She made dinner for all of us for the longest time, every Sunday and all the Holidays for very close to 10 years after we were married in 1986.She was a great cook. I will treasure the recipes I have of hers.
Other memories were how she loved Patrick's dogs. Up to the end I would hear stories of how Charlie made her so happy. And earlier on-- Clancy. Betty and I would have long conversations on the phone as well. She was such a good mother and mother-in-law.
I have always admired how she loved her children and dedicated her life to them.
I will miss her greatly. She will be in my heart always.
With love and sympathy,
Betsy(Hayford) Bremer--Windsor, Maine

I am saddened by Aunt Betty's passing. She was a beloved aunt and I fondly remember her. She was my Mother's "favorite" sister. My sympathy and prayers to all her family.
