I was late getting this sad news but wanted to send condolences and comfort your way. I will, of course, be calling in the time ahead, Auntie Lynn. Betty was always very good and patient with me on occasions where we were together; never making me feel like an annoying little kids.
It is always hard to lose a loved one. May the memories you share with your family and friends comfort you. Edna, Dave, Mike and Kelli Clark.
