I was in the Amadeus Choir with Betty for several years in the late `80´s - `90´s. I remember her beautiful smile. Deepest sympathies to all the family.

My sincere condolences to Lorraine, Nancy, Janna and family - Betty was a long-time and wonderful member of the alto section of the Amadeus Choir for many years, a good friend to all and someone who made a difference to many lives. She and my Mom, Florence Adams, were great friends through the Amadeus Choir and through the St. Mark's choir, and I am thrilled that I now have as a prized possession a beautiful Royal Doulton figurine that Betty had brought to the Amadeus auction, and which my mother won in the auction. I always think of Betty when I look at it. She is someone who will always be remembered fondly, a gentle soul with a great sense of humour - she left everyone feeling better and she left this world a better place because she was in it. Rest in Peace, dear Betty - we were so fortunate to have you in our lives.
