Dear Betty.
In 1976 Britt and I was lucky enough to meet you, Jerry and your family when you lived in Bergen, Norway. You became our extended family and during the years we have visited you in Slidell we have discovered how wonderful people you are. To come to Slidell is like coming home..
We were very sorry to that Jerry had passed away. He was a wondeful person and I was lucky enogh to work with him in the
North Sea and he was very professonial person and he was highly respected by his collegues in Norway..
We will always remember the wonderful trips we had to Slidell and the early mornings out for fishing.
Thank you for everything and for the wonderful way we have been included in your lives. Love from Britt and Asbjørn
