We will truly miss Betty Springer at VVHCC. I always knew a "yoohoo" down the hall meant she was wheeling herself in her wheelchair and needed something. She was so spunky, funloving and awnry but that's what made her so loveable. How many times did we look for that purse also? LOL My dearest sympathies to her families. She will be missed!! Rest in Peace Betty Springer. YooHoo at us from heaven!
