Memories & Candles
Here it is Christmas and I am just sitting thinking of my Aunt Betty remembering a couple of Christmas's ago. She bought me a little red headed elf for CHristmas. She told me that it reminded her of me. I am missing you and wishing i would have spent more time with her. I love you and miss you

Brian, I am sorry to hear of your loss. You and I spent many hours playing hoop in your driveway, and I have fond memories of your mom's humerous reactions when the ball would hit the cars parked in the street.
My thoughts are with you.

Brandon & Family. We have been out of town and just heard about Betty passing away. Betty & I worked for many, many years together at Memorial Mortuaries. We shared so much, laughter, disappointment, stress, our families. I will miss her so much. The photo's brought back so many good memories. I will miss Betty, her telephone calls, her hugs, her friendship and her love. Brandon, your Mom was one of kind. We will see you at the Memorial Service. Love Paul & Sherrie Ross

I used to live behind Betty for years. I have 3 'chocolate' siblings and it was so fun to be her neighbor! She was a very sweet lady!

I have many wonderful memories of Betty. She used to babysit for myself and three siblings. We loved coming to her house and I remember her as always laughing. She was an angel on earth and my heart goes out to all of her children, grandchildren, and husband.
Love to you all!

I have so many fond memories of Betty and I loved her dearly. I was in shock when I heard she went home. I cried so hard and still am crying. She used to play with us kids all the time when we were younge and she always told me to call her Aunt Betty and I was so excited to know I was able to share Karrie's aunt and even more excited when she took me under her arm

My heart goes out to her family for their loss.
Betty was my babysitter from the time I was 3 til about 6. I remember watching her make Kool Aid and she would pour in the sugar, add water and I would sit there in awe as all of the white sugar turned to red Kool Aid. I remember asking her how it changed colors and she said it was magic. I didn't see that she'd already added the Kool

To David, Brandon and the rest of Betty's family,
I was saddened to hear of Betty's passing. She is a fine lady, and I know she will be missed by you all. I enjoyed working with Betty (and with David and Brandon) when I was at Cottonwood; Betty was always cheerful, even as she began to have health concerns. It is this cheeriness I will always remember about Betty. I regret that my work schedule will not allow me to attend Betty's service, but please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Gary S. Luke
