    I will always remember my time spent with Betty doing her fingernails and reading the paper and chatting. How I enjoyed my Wednesday mornings with her. May she rest in eternal peace.

    Wish I could join you all for the memorial. Betty always held such a special place in my heart, I will always remember our visits over coffee at her house. I’m certain Uncle Bob is very happy to see her again! Hugs & Love to all of you!

    I have great memories of sitting down to Betty’s awesome home cooked meals. My favorite however is of her keen sense of humor. When something happened even with a somewhat serious twist to it, Betty would often find some humor in it and you could catch her with a smile or even a quiet snicker. She was wise to everything. We’ll all miss her.

    I have some wonderful memories of my sister-in-law, Betty. She was always a gracious hostess when we came up for branding, spraying, and shipping. She was a wonderful cook and baker, knew where to find the best grain/flour for making bread. May she rest in peace. Boys you have many beautiful memories to treasure. My heart goes out to you!

    What an elegant lady she was! Kind, generous, sweet, and always helpful. Just look at the fine family she raised. I know she is proud of them all.

    Bill and I had wonderful memories of time we got to spend with Aunt Betty and Uncle Bob. We loved visiting the family in Montana and her special attendance at the reunions in Sheridan. Rest for eternity in heaven, dear lady.
