Betty was not only my beloved sister, but also my best friend and confidant. We would talk hours on the phone and discuss our deepest feeling and thoughts. We were truley to pees in a pod. I will miss her tremendously but I know she is in a better place next to her husband and our mother and father. Rest in peace my dear sister, you will not be forgotten, for your life made a true impact here on earth.
