I remember when Grpa Charlie died and Betty and I drove from Billings to Sidney. Betty told me story after story about growing up and all about Lurine (her sister that was just older than her and died when she was 10. I have her name as my middle name) and my Dad, Bud and everyone in the family. It was the most enjoyable time and I learned more during that 5 hours than I had my life of growing up.
Thank you Betty.

My sincere condolences to the family of Betty Daniels Arneson – I am sorry to hear of your loss. May you be comforted by the “God of all comfort” who promises to “comfort us in all our tribulations” (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4). I hope you find peace in many Bible promises (John 17:3).
