Betty was such a sweet person and I enjoyed working with her. I have the ribbons she made for different holidays to everyone. She will be missed.

I first meet Betty at Four Seasons in Ohio where we worked together. She was truly someone to know. We remained friends all these years. Rest In Peace Betty you deserved it. I am thankful I meet you all those years ago.
