We have many fond memories of Betty Boyce at St. Michael the Archangel…fun, sweet, vigorous, full of pep. To this day we use her Irish Potatoes and Scone recipes and guard them closely. She was always talking sweetly about her children and Johnny and Ireland. Please accept our heartfelt condolences. She is sorely missed.
