Dear family, we are so sad to hear of Aunt Betty’s passing. Losing our parents is a very hard thing to experience. Aunt Betty was one of the most loving, caring and compassionate people I knew. She loved and was so proud of her family. We pray for your peace and that you will be comforted knowing she is in heaven with your dad and Brenda. With our deepest sympathy,
