We were shocked to learn of Betty's death. We will always remember how Betty admired Frank's large garden. Many Saturday mornings Betty would be in her housecoat with grandchildren or others in tow walking along the back of the garden explaining the various veggies. Frank was always very proud that Betty enjoyed his garden. May Betty rest in the garden of Heaven.Our deepest sympathy to Julie and family,Frank and Kathy
