I'm so sorry about the loss of your sister, Betsy. I am so shocked and sad for you and your family. I tried calling you but the last phone number I have for you is wrong. Please call me (518) 237-1512 when you can and let me know if there is anything at all I can do for you or your family. Love You. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Your friend, Pam DiLorenzo

To the Entire Castro-Mahar Family,



I just received notice of Betsy's passing and I too am shocked and saddened by her loss. I went to Shenendehowa with Betsy and knew her and her brothers Scott and Brian fairly well way back then. She was a very sweet and fun person to be around, and she will be sorely missed by everyone that knew her. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless.

We are very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts & prayers are with you at this difficult time. Betsy was a very special person. My kids adored her. When my daughter worked at the mall, they would talk during breaks. She always asked me how my kids were doing. We will miss her warmth & kindness.

Sincerely,

Jean, Michelle, & Ryan Phillip
