When I heard that your mom had passed many memories came flooding back. All good ones of days living in the great little town of Lafontaine. What a wonderful legacy Dad and Mom left for all of you! My mom (Ann) told me just today that she wondered how Betty was doing when she drove past her house and then she found she had passed. She said Betty had always greeted my dad every day he came to work at Harper Construction, hollering "Hi Phil!" Things you remember after someone is gone makes the hurt feel softer. Larry, Rich and Jane: You were blessed with some of the best parents kids ever get in life. A lot of us were. Tell God, "Thank You!" May He give you eternal peace. 💕

Betty had the sweetest spirit of almost anyone I ever met. We had a lot of good times in Florida. I remember when I was young she would cut my hair. A quiet lovely person that influenced a lot of people. The last time I talked to her she was having so much trouble breathing. She said," I am ready to go."
She is not having to struggle for each breathe now. Our sympathy to the family.

I have fun memories of Betty cutting and styling my hair. Her shop was my first hair salon experience. She was always so nice each time I went in before a special dance or event at school.

Jane and family, so sorry for your loss. Betty held a special spot in my heart from the time I was little. I still remember going to her and getting my "pixie" hair cuts. What a beautiful person and friend to my mom. Your dad was such a wonderful person also and I am sure they are reunited and spreading their love
