I remember Betty Horstmann from many decades ago when our families lived on Kent Road in Bala-Cynwyd, PA. Her beauty and shining spirit, which radiated through her glorious smile were evident to all. She was an outstanding wife and mother, and a great lady. Eternal peace and joy to her, and my deepest condolences to her family.
with love, Joan Vizard Forde

Dear Mrs. Bell (Pauline), Polly, Arthur and Ryan,
Since my sister Dawn keeps up with these things and sent your mother/grandmothers notice to me, I wanted to express my condolences on her passing. Pauline (Mrs Bell), your presence and words at the time of our mom's and then dad's passing was comforting and quite helpful. With deepest sympathy, Dore DeCwikiel Forman
