So very sorry for your loss.. Betty was a very sweet lady . The last time I visited with her she told me she might like to see Vegas . But she is in a much more exciting place now . God Bless you all !!
Grandma, It is very painful to see you go. It was just a couple of weeks ago when you were at your granddaughters 5th Bday party.You would never miss a bday party or family gathering. Your eyes would light up when you were able to spend time with any of your grandchildren.
I will forever have great memories of the times we shared, like when I was a child and was visiting your house on Basswood and would take the little red wagon and pull my brother and sister around the blocks and take the secret passages through the neighborhood. The times when we lived in Dallas and you and grandpa would come and visit us.
Your great grandchildren, Bryson and Hailey love you and will miss you, I am thankful they had the opportunity to make memories with you.
Grandma, you will be missed very much, and I love you.
Love
Gloria, Sam, Bryson and Hailey
My sympathies to the family of Betty. I loved to read ‘Betty is with her Lord and Savior.’ Truly she was a believer and an inspiration to us. Norma
