Rod, I´m so sorry that we lost Betsy. But so thankful I was able to see her and spend a little time with her. Betsy was loved and will be missed by so many, especially me. We had gotten so close over the last couple of years. To know she is in the arms of her Lord and Savior is the greatest blessing. Godspeed, sweet soul.
