To Michelle, Kristine and family, Betty was a wonderful friend. I first met Betty in 1979 when we worked together at Montgomery Ward. That co-worker relationship soon developed into an amazing lifetime friendship, spanning many years. I was blessed to to have Betty in my life. She will always be remembered, as I hold so many memories close to my heart. With much love, Jackie

Michelle, Kristine, and families, Our deepest condolences to you and your families. Your parents were always great neighbors to us. Jim and I were just talking about that 4th of July when your Dad was doing fireworks in front of the house. The shrubs caught on fire and we put it out. Wasn't serious, but was funny looking back at it. We have moved to Florida, otherwise we would be there for you. Hugs to everyone! Take care! Love you!
