I look at this lovely picture of Auntie Bettie and I am filled with so many memories, over so many years that it is impossible to pick the best ones and articulate them. My first home after graduating was at Bettie and Andy's, my wedding dress was made by her, She lent me a green sweater for a first date, Above all, I have a memory of the warmth, and the love, and the laughter that surrounded her and how special I felt when I was young (and not so young) in her presence. My heart goes out to you all but what memories you must have if mine are so good!
My deepest condolences to Uncle Andy, Cynthia, Valerie, Shelley, Patrick and your families.
