Deepest sympathies to Husband, Sons DNLs and Grandchildren
I’ll miss seeing her and Duck walking along Main St.
Gail and I are so sorry to learn of Betty’s passing. She was a beautiful lady and a joy to be with. She will be sorely missed by many!! We send our love to Dick!
When I was around your mom, I felt such genuine goodness. She passed all of that onto her daughter, my friend. She will always be with you because she’s a part of you from day one. Life without her hurts forever. Your wonderful family and friends will walk along with you and my thoughts and prayers are with your dad. Broken heart syndrome is real. I love you

So sorry to hear this. My grandfather and her father were brothers. Sympathy to the family.
I wrote Betty’s father was brother to my grandfather but our grandfather’s were brothers.
