Death brings pain that only time can heal, No words could ease what we truly feel; But with God, her joy is eternally sealed, And cherish her memories that death can’t even steal.
My deepest condolences to Tony, Brett, Michael, Stardard; Christopher & Michael.
Rest In Peace Betsy
Words cannot express my sorrow. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with each of you. Betsy is in a place where she wont suffer anymore. Take great comfort in knowing that. Time will never erase the sting of loss, but it will get easier to deal with. Remember the good times and the precious memories. Always remember the cookouts and watermelons too….She laughed a lot about those days…. .God bless you all.
Rest well and peacefully Betsy I will remember you fondly….
I will miss my dearest friend. A beautiful soul. My heartfelt sympathy to her wonderful sons.
I love you and already miss you greatly. You have been much more than a mother-in-law to me. You were a devoted friend, a confidante, generous, and loving. You never wanted anything but the best for me and supported me through the good, the bad, and even a few of the ugly times. Thank you for your unconditional love.
My Dearest Betsy may you rest in peace. You will be truly missed. I regret not making it up to see you and all your furry friends. I’ll miss our long conversations. Love you forever. You were a true friend. Condolences to all the family. Thank you Brett for keeping me informed. XOXO’S
Betsy was such a kind and thoughtful lady. My sister Angie and I appreciated her sweet spirit as we got to know each other through Tony. She loved her family and we are praying for all of you during this time of loss.
Saying goodbye to someone you love is heartbreaking. May loving memories help ease your loss and give you comfort at this sad time. With my deepest sympathy.
Dear Betsy, you will be missed. I enjoyed the time we worked together at Meritor. Rest easy my friend. Praying for your family, Tim Hyatt
