Dear Donald, Janice and Family,
Please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of Betty. Aunt Betty was very dear to my mother, Betty Anne, as the two grew up together with Grammie Martin at the helm. Mom always regarded Betty as a big sister, that gave her love, guidance and support to put her on the right path in life. They shared clothing, and Betty even allowed Mom to borrow her beautiful wedding gown. They had many wonderful adventures growing up in Milford, sometimes with Joan thrown into the mix. The two always remained very close and talked often until Betty found it difficult to hear on the telephone. Mom would think of Betty, and then all of a sudden, Betty would call the house for a heartfelt chat. Betty was a woman of deep faith and showed genuine love and interest to all that met her. She deeply touched Mom's life and heart. In fact, Mom mentioned her last week and wondered how she was doing. Heaven has gained an angel of the highest degree! You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Betty Anne and Dawn Lamb
