My sister who was gone by the time I was born and we really didn't get to know each other until our parents died. Since then we shared many memories that I had forgotten but she hadn't. I will miss her and have already. We shared the same birth date only 20years apart. Good Bye Betty You will always be here.

Betty will be always remembered as the strong, intelligent, caring and loving woman that she was.
Her legacy is her love, warmth and values that are instilled in all of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren which will be passed on to future generations and carried in our hearts as well!
