Betty is a beautiful soul. Always pleasant even when her chips were let down. I always admired & respected her we traveled many the same road. One of my favorite employers. I wish her entire family plus Tom peace in her memories & remember the love she had in her heart. Rest in peace Betty.Chris Miller

Betty was my best friend and my roomate at Crossroads Care Center. Through all of the trials and tribulations we shared each new incident was to be a chapter in our book we planned to publish when we would leave that place. We would "wagon train"through the halls with other girls and Drew to visit the shut ins, have hot cocoa after bingo, and give some of our loot ,apples or licorish to the rest of the gang.Betty was the good will ambassador at crossroads..a ray of sweetness and sunshine. We are all infinatly richer for knowing her. We love you more Betty! The other senior delinquentN

My condolences to Dave and Family. I never met your mother but based on what I am hearing and the love shown she seemed like a remarkable woman. The world was a little brighter and better with her here and now Heaven is blessed to have her home.
