Brother Jerrry I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mother was very special woman. Going to miss her sense of humor! SorryI wasn't able to attend the memorial!

So sorry to hear about Betty. I spent a lot of time at her and Joe's house with Craig. Great lady. She always made sure me and Craig went to church on Sunday and would give us the eye from the church choir anytime we were talking. She also took us to many baseball games. She was a great lady. You will be missed
