Robert, I am saddened of Betty’s passing, and will keep you and her family in my prayers. Betty was an accomplished listener. That is my first thought, and she was a real lady, anyone that knew Betty, knew that. She quietly stood above the best of us. Soft, calm, gentle, bright, gifted all describe her. I loved to smell and touch the beautiful flowers she shared from her garden. She was a consummate giver in all ways. She will be sorely missed. She had quite a following of people, though she did not know this. Sincerely, Angie
Robert, I am so sad at the passing of your beautiful wife and soul mate. The two of you were an inspiration to everyone around you. I so enjoyed working with Betty at Dr. Bek’s office. Betty was such a beautiful woman inside and out. I pray the Lord holds you in the palm of his hand and lifts your spirit. Cathy Monaco
Mr. Thomas, Donna and family, I am so sorry for your loss. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
I am saddened to hear of Betty’s passing. I worked with Betty and knew her to be one of the most professional and conscientous people I’ve known. Mostly, I’ll remember her kindness toward others. My sincerest condolences go out to her family and many friends.
My Heavenly Angel. I Love You Very, Very Much.
I worked with Betty at SPSA for many years. I feel very honored to have known her. Betty’s days have been completed here on earth. She has now gone home to start her loving life with our dear father. We will always have great memories of our short time with Betty. She was a true lady. She was so kind and sincere. She was truly one in a million. Betty is no longer in any pain. Robert, open up your heart and let the sunshine in. Betty is smiling on each one of us. She will never be forgotten. Betty, until we meet again God Bless you and your family.
