As a nurse, we are often told never to say we have favorite patients. But anyone who had the privilege of knowing Betty would understand why that rule was impossible to follow. She was truly one of my most favorite people I’ve ever encountered.
Betty had a heart full of love, warmth, and wisdom. She had this beautiful way of making you feel seen and valued. She wasn’t just a client—she was a friend. She would always check in on me, making sure I was doing okay even on my toughest days. She invited me into her world, welcoming me into her apartment just to chat, to laugh, to share life.
She was beautiful—not just in appearance, but in spirit. Intelligent, kind, and genuine. Betty brought light into every room she entered, and her absence will be deeply felt around our campus.
I will miss her greatly. It was an honor to care for her, but even more of an honor to know her. Rest peacefully, Betty. Thank you for being exactly who you were.
