I am so sorry for your loss. Betty was a beautiful lady. She was always taking someone to the store or just going to the store for them. Betty took people to the Drs. She was always on the go go go. She was always cooking and taking food to others. I’ll sure miss her and I’m sure many many others will too. I love you Betty. Now you can relax. Bobbie Gibson

Betty and I became friends while working together to make the bears. Betty was such a joy to be with and she kept us laughing til we cried with her real life stories. Some were sad too. Betty loved helping people and she would do anything for anyone. I will certainly miss you Betty! Gone but not forgotten. Love and prayers to Darrell and family.
