    We are so very sorry for your loss. She was such a special lady and we loved her dearly. Whenever we came down she would bring Jim popcorn and hang out with us. We always called her to let her know we were in town and wanted her to come over. We will definitely miss her and her wonderful laugh.❤

    Aunt Betty, I know you were a great Aunt, but I loved the times when you and Grandma would cone to Michigan. You were more of a Grandma than an Aunt ALWAYS. You would always make an effort to come to Grandma’s house when we in town, even if it was to bring Dad his popcorn that you made. You always made us feel welcomed and loved. Especially the time we were in town after swimming the dogs at Uncle Mike’s house. You are truly an angel and I will always love you.

    Her smile affected everyone who knew her.
    There was always something to giggle about with Betty!

    Betty was an amazing woman and dear friend of my great grandmother, Beverly. I remember tagging along with them to go to garage sales and helping with Betty’s every year. I was just a child so I couldn’t have been much help but Betty and my grandma were always so happy to have me around. I will never forget her and how much of a great friendship they shared. My prayers are with the family during such a hard time.
