To all the Golden Family.
I am so sorry for the lose of Betty. She was a great friend. I used to hand out with Betty and spent many nights in her home. I well always remember her. She was a beautiful lady and a great friend. I wish I could be there but I just can't be there at this.
Love always

Dorothy and Family…..my thoughts and prayers are with you! May God give you peace and comfort in the days ahead. Hugs and much love.
I can only imagine the giggles she is sharing with Mom I Heaven. Praying for comfort for your family. She sure was a great person.
So sorry to hear of her passing. She was my “second” Momma and many of my young life was spent with her and Dorothy. Many…many memories I have and they are great memories that I hope to have forever! She will be missed. Condolences to all.
