Betty was a hard worker and would help and do what ever needed to be done to help you out. Betty instilled her work ethics in her son Max. Betty will be missed by so many.
Betty and Clyde mentored Joe and I for many years. She was special to us. Mike and Melisa we will be praying for you in your loss. Now she can set up her committee and get heaven organized for us someday. Of course they would have to be Demorcrates! Lol
I am so sorry for your families loss, I remember Betty well, very nice lady! I will be thinking of your family and
keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope all your good times help you through this difficult situation.
My sincere sympathy to the family. May you find comfort in your loving memories, and in God’s promise to soon “swallow up death forever” and “wipe away the tears from all faces.” (Isaiah 25:8)
