Jackie and Janyce,
We are so sorry to hear of Betty's passing. I enjoyed being around her and all of her girls when I was a kid. You have wonderful memories of your Mother, so let those memories help sustain you in the days ahead, because with those memories, she will never die in your heart. Heaven has gained another beautiful angel to watch over us. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. If there is anything we can do, please let us know. Love and prayers from your cousin.
