Betty has been a part of our family for over thirty years, and was loved by my childrren and grandchildren.

One of my favorite moments was XMas 2012, also little Bode's first Christmas. With all the bustle going on with all the company and prresents, Bode found that a comfortable place to be was on Betty's lap, hanging out with Betty and Joanne. Betty read to him and played with him, and he was happy to stay on the safe place on her lap for over an hour.

I loved Joanne's posted peom to Betty. If she is not there yet, I believe that Betty will see some familiar old faces waiting for her on that far shore.

We'll miss you at family gaherings, Betty.
