Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Warren, Eiko and family, Deep condolences are sent to you and your family. I remember meeting your mom back during our college days and remember her kindness. Please know we are holding you all in our thoughts and prayers.
Betty attended my Yoga Fitness classes for over 4 yers. She will be missed by me the teacher. She did everything to stay healthy and in good shape. She will be missed by everyone that had the good luck to know her.
My aunt, Malinda Fullerton, was Betty’s neighbor in the apartments at Presbyterian Manor. I would come to visit my aunt and would run into Betty many times. She was always pleasant and cheerful. But what struck me the most was her kindness to my aunt. She looked out for her and would call me to tell me if my aunt needed anything. She helped her many times to find her contacts for her eyes-yes my aunt wore them at age 90. I took my aunt to see Betty the Tuesday before she died and she said she wasn’t in any pain except from the bed sore and that she didn’t want to go. I prayed with her and my aunt. I know God meant alot to Betty and she meant alot to us. May God comfort you in this loss. Betty will be greatly missed!!
Friends of the Library Bookstore has lost a delightful personality! I visited with Betty frequently during her tenure of the last few years. I will miss her smiling face and her ‘loveliness’. May her soul rest in peace.
I used to work with Betty at Montgomery Ward. She was in the catalog dept. and I was the PBX operator. She was a very sweet lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
