My deepest sympathy to your family. Betty was a beautiful woman. Always smiling. My mother (clara toney) and I bowled with Betty many years ago. She was at Presby Sr. Care during the time my father John (hubby) was there. She was always so kind with dad. She will be missed. May God give your family comfort during this time. God bless
