We could always count on Aunt Betty sending cards and package full of goodies on Valentines Day, birthdays and other special holidays. She was always affectionately referred to as Aunt Betty or Auntie.
Aunt Betty loved growing plants, working in the yard, growing her moon flowers and butterflies were her specialty. She would plant fennel and raise black swallowtail butterflies each year.
She also enjoyed watching the "V" formations of the geese through her dining room window.
