Betty, we will never forget you greeting us as new members of Millerton UMC! Or the lilacs we brought you and the smile on your face as you smelled the aroma of these flowers. You are now in the arms of our Lord, being at peace and we know you are watching over us all.

To my Nanny: I will always cherish the time spent with you and Pop growing up as well as with your friend David after Pop passed. Spending time with you at Christmas and then visits throughout the year were my favorite memories. Seeing you with your great grandchildren and how much your family meant to you showed how much love and pride you had for all of us. Your church friends were all so precious to you as well. I will always remember how happy you were when everyone could be together in your home. Your love for collecting Hummels and finding a good bargain is something you will be remembered for as well. I look forward to seeing you again one day. Love you always
