Betty was a great lady, I met her over 40 years ago and loved her like a mom
Grams will be greatly missed, she always made sure to tell everyone how much she loved them and would always smile so big just to see you. She had one of the warmest hearts a person could have. Ill never forget being a kid and anytime I would go to her house she would always ask me if I wanted candy :). Love and miss you Grams

I’m so sadden she never met our 2 boys I tried for a couple years to make it then something would come up. But we love her with all our hearts.. love you grandma… love ur Granddaughter Tina and family..
I thought of you today.
But that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
I think of you in silence.
I often speak your name.
Now all I have are memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake.
With which I never will part.
God has you in his keeping.
I have you in my heart.
Anyone that knew Betty knows she was a women of many colors. She would literally light up any room she walked into. She will be greatly missed. But the memories she created with everyone will be forever. Like how she would match her clothes, earrings ,hair ties perfect to fit the holidays or just any normal day. Or how she would kiss every one of the kids as she arrived to a get together and kiss them again as she left leaving a big Pink lipstick Mark on everyone’s cheek followed by Grandma love you and a big hug. Betty wasn’t my Grandma by blood but she was my grandma by love I will forever remember her and love her.
I am so sorry to hear of Bettys passing. I am her sister Linda. I hadn’t seen her for many years. Never the less, she was my sister and I loved her. Broken families always leave some with deep regrets for words not said, hurts not healed. That would be me in this case. I cannot undo the past, only live with my regrets sadly.
My love and sympathy to all my nieces and nephews. May God comfort you in your sorrow.
Hi Linda, Could you post your mailing address on here for me. It was nice to hear from you. Thanks, Mike Walsh
Hi Mike.
So nice to hear from you. I have very deep regrets for the terrible past. I would so much love to be in touch with you and Cheryl and any of my nieces, nephews. I only wish I could have seen my sister. This is the price we pay for words left unsaid. Paul and I are both retired this past year. Please let me hear from you and Cheryl. My deepest love and sympathy to each of you. We are in Richfield,Mn @6500 Woodlake Drive. Aunt Linda
