Dear Travis, Tyler and family,  I am so very sorry to hear about Betsy please know that my thoughts are with you.  It was so much fun to see Travis last October and hear about your family. Our families had so much fun together when our children were babies!!!!  Betsy helped me get through under graduate school by typing all my papers and it was always so much fun sitting in the bleachers with her watching high school football !!  She was such a wonderful person in so many respects and that is mirrored in each of you.   My love to each of you.  Brooke Rodgers 227 N. Jefferson St., Staunton, VA 24401

Our world was always better and brighter because of Betsy. We shall miss her as a friend and mother of our friends.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Josie, John and Rebecca Wallace

Travis, Tyler, Joe, and the rest of the family,
We are deeply sorry to hear about the passing of Betsy.  Anna has wonderful memories of her time with Betsy, Greg, Tyler, and Travis when she was a little girl.  She remembers Betsy's beautiful smile and the wonderful times she had at her house growing up.  We wish we could have been with you for support.

My deepest condolences on the passing of Betsy.  She was indeed a great lady!!  I knew Betsy when she lived here in Elkins, and, in fact, she and I were among the aerobics instructors at the YMCA during the 1980's, which is where I really got to know her.  She was a lot of fun to be around, we always had a good time when working out our routines.  Betsy always loved her country music, and we would invariably include a country song into our various routines.  Her laugh was deep and contagious in its spontaneity.  And her smile, which is evident in the photo here, was just wonderful.  I am glad that I was able to get to know Betsy at least a little bit, and to share some good times with her.  I know that you will all miss her greatly, but know that you have memories of a wonderful, loving person as your mother, wife, grandmother,sister.  She was a special person.
                   With sympathy,
                   Raymond Godwin

Betsy was a dear friend and a joy to be around.  Her cheer and enthusiasm will be missed at the museums she served so well and by all of us who knew her.

I didn't know Betsy well but I thought that there would be time to become friends. As a new employee with the museum, Betsy seemed to make it her ""mission"" to make me feel accepted, valuable and special.  Her cheerfulness, contagious smile and warmth helped transform the uneasiness of unfamiliar surroundings and faces into what seemed like a ""cozy family."" Betsy was a very ""shiny"" person.  I will miss the opportunity to thank her for her kindness.  Betsy has left fingerprints on my heart because in the short time that I knew her, she touched my heart.
With sincere sympathy,
Suzanne

It was my pleasure to take care of Betsy during her stay in the ICU.  I could tell just from that short time that she loved her boys very much.  She was a special lady and I'm sure she will be missed.  My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

We are so sorry to hear of Betsy's passing.  She was a wonderful friend and talented and compassionate teacher.  I enjoyed teaching elementary school and aerobics with her.  She will be missed.

Dear Travis, Tyler, and Joe, Betsy helped me in Third Ward School Library when I was librarian there.  She was my daughter, Jenny's Gifted teacher in Elementary School.  I always enjoyed her up-beat personality and engaging smile.  I haven't seen her since she moved from Elkins, but was thinking about her just the other day.  I'm glad to have known her.  Please accept my sincere sympathy.  I will keep you all in my prayers.  Judy Sinkule

Dear Travis, Tyler, and Joe,
We are so very sorry to learn of Betsy's death.  Our memories of her are from her years living here in Elkins when the boys were growing up.  She truly was one of those people who could light up a room with her smile!  
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you deal with this loss.  Keep your own wonderful memories of her close to your hearts and find comfort in knowing that she touched so many people in such a positive way.
With love and concern,
Tom and Paula Staud and family

Some one quoted Betsy as being a gem. 
Yes she was and will be missed by many.
She was a great person to work with at the museum.  Ken

For us Museumers @ the Greeley Museums, Betsy always had a bright smile, a wink, and something fun to say to spice up even the hardest and longest days! What a thoughtful, sweet, caring lady.  Betsy will be greatly missed...

Dear Travis, Tyler, Joe and Family,
     My heart breaks knowing such a good woman has left this earth. I am honored to have known Aunt Betsy, and deeply saddened that she is gone. My first wish was not granted, but my second one is that her essense will live on though us.
                                        I pray that with time, your days will begin to bring more joy than sorrow, and your nights more sleep than tears.  I am so, so sorry.
Dear Travis and Tyler,
    I will ALWAYS be here for you.  Day or night, now or later.

To Joe & The Kuntz Family,
     From the Jones Family and the family of In & Out Pipeline we would like to say that our condolences go out to your entire family. We will keep you and Elizabeth in our hearts and prayers. If you need anything at all, please let us know. ?- The Jones Family

Betsy shall remain one of my favorite people on the planet.  She was one of this earth's truly good souls.  I shall always love her and admire her attitude.  
I think that, personally, I shall dedicate the rest of this year to her memory.  I shall try to keep that springy, go-getting attitude with joy in my heart because I admired that about Betsy and have been inspired by her so often.  Perhaps this effort will create in me that which I admired about Betsy.  
It is impossible to say goodbye for the last time to someone so alive.  I can only imagine that we will meet again and have wonderful conversations and prod each other with great humor and delicious fun.

Oh Travis, Tyler and family--I am so so sorry to hear about your mother.  You know how special she was and I have particularly enjoyable memories during the days of Third Ward on through high school.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family during this difficult time.  Much love.

Dear Travis, Tyler, Joe & the rest of the family:
Our hearts are going out to you at this difficult time. I thought I'd share a Betsy memory with you. Actually, I credit Betsy for turning me on to country music. It's a love that I still have today. I took aerobics with her and she used to play country music during classes. I never knew you could move/dance to country music until she came along. I got to know your mom during that class. She was so lively, laughed a lot, & had a spring in her step. From then on out, that's how I saw her! She was a beautiful person inside and out! We are truly sorry for your loss and just want you to know that we are here for you! Our love to you all - Marsha, Eric & Jovi Woods

You all are in our thoughts.  Betsy was so sweet and loving and so good to her family.
Lori, Bart, Amanda, Mikey, and Andee

Dear Joe & family:
Betsy was one of our dearest friends, she always had that big smile no matter how she felt or what was happening.  She always found the best in everyone.  We are going to miss her so much.  Betsy was a very special friend and we love her very much.
Our Love
Darrell & Carolyn

Dear Joe and family,
We're so sorry to learn of Betsy's death.  We just met her that one time when we gathered for Bill Kuntz's memorial service, but it was so obvious to us both that she was truly a shining light, full of love and the joy of life.  We wish we had had the opportunity to be with her, and all of you, more.  Our hearts are with you in this sad time.
Fondly, your cousin Dana,
   and Bill Pratt

Betsy was one of the most outstanding educators in our area.When she left Randolph County there was a huge void in our hearts.She inspired my curious son to reach for the stars,a feat which he is still aspiring to.So sorry for your loss,our prayers are with you in this time of loss.God bless your family.  Mark,Dawn and Kelly Hardesty

I am shocked and deeply saddened to
learn of your loss. My heart goes out to you. The square dance community has lost a wonderful friend.

I grew up with Travis and I remember Betsy fondly from the times that I spent at her house. She was a lovely and kind person. She always had something positive to say to you. She will be missed. My deepest condolences to the family.

Dearest Travis:
We were so saddened to hear of Betsy's passing.  What a beautiful person she was.  You are in our thoughts.  We love you.  Lynn and Jenn Hicks

Betsy has been a true friend to me since high school.  Even though there were years we didn't communicate, we could always reconnect when the time came.  I will miss her peppy personality!

Travis & Tyler,
Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family for the loss of Betsy. She was a beautiful lady and just like Greg, she touched our life in a wonderful way.
Her ever smiling face is the one that we will always picture. All I can say is that up there she is giving joy to a whole bunch of people. Down here we miss her!
Love to you:  Sharmi, Shankar and Abhik Roy

Joe, Travis and Tyler and family,
Betsy was one of those rare people that could make you feel better simply by being around you.  I can honestly say that every time I spoke with her she made me feel like I was the only one in the room.   I try to live my life with the goal of making everyone I come in contact with feel special, it never worked with Betsy though, she always managed to somehow turn it around on me.  Her positive attitude and demeanor were infectious and it goes without saying that she touched everyone who knew her.  It may sound cliché, but we really are better people for having known her.
Bernie and I are deeply saddened by your loss and sincerely hope that the positivity she left behind in each of you will help you navigate through this very difficult time.  
Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love,
Walt and Bernie Smith

Deepest Sympathy to the family

I was a student of Betsy's for 6 years at Midland Elementary in Elkins, WV. She was a wonderful person and teacher. I've always fondly remembered her class and all the field trips she took our group on, as she was a favorite teacher of mine. Her ability to challenge and have fun with her students made a permanent impression on me. My sincerest condolences and prayers to Betsy's family.

Travis and Tyler,  Oh my, I am so so sorry to hear of your mom?'s passing.   She and I first met in childbirth classes back in the summer of 1975!   We enjoyed a friendship as our children grew up and I helped with her wedding to Joe.   She was the epitome of a good person.  Her quick smile and all that energy were contagious!!!   Keep all those good memories close to your heart and know that she is with you always.

Joe and all of Betsy's family,
I will always remember Betsy's patience, compassion and dedication working with our adult students at Right to Read.  I know she touched many, many lives during her lifetime.  She will be missed and will always be remembered.

I was fortunate to have Betsy as an extended studies teacher for six years at Midland Elementary School in Elkins, WV.  Her love for children and learning was always evident in her classroom.  I have many wonderful memories of her class, as well as the many great field trips and experiences provided by her hard work and dedication.  She was one of the great influences that inspired me to become a teacher.  My deepest sympathies go to her family.  She was such a wonderful person.

Dear Joe, Travis, and Tyler,
I was so sorry and saddened to hear of the passing of Betsy.  Her friendship filled a very special place in my life.  Betsy's positive approach and zest for life enriched the lives of all those around her. My most heartfelt condolences you and all of her family.

Betsy was and will continue to be an inspiration to me.  Her energy and passion amazed me.  I knew Betsy only for a couple of years, but I feel like she was one of my best friends.  Her smile would clear a cloudy day and she was always more concerned with the comfort of others than her own needs.  The picture chosen for her obituary was perfect!  I will always remember her smile and enthusiasm.  Margaret Andersen

Betsy was my favorite teacher in my elementary school years.  She brought and got more out of me that nearly anyone else.  She will never be forgotten and her legacy will live on in her students.  God bless you all in this time.

Dear Family:
As a friend of Cathy's, I want to convey my sincerest sympathy to you.  My prayers of comfort are with you.
Very Sincerely,
Ruth Rogge, Fort Collins CO

Travis and family, So sorry for your loss. In my thoughts and prayers.

Travis and family--I am so very sorry to hear of your mom's passing.  What a wonderful woman!! Having worked with her in the special ed. field in Randolph County and then having you in class and knowing her as a loving parent are two very cherished memories of mine.  She was always so passionate about every aspect of life!  I had no idea that she was so close to me here in Colorado or I would have been in contact with her.  Cherish the memories in your heart and know that she is right there guiding you, even in her passing.  I would love to see you sometime and catch up!!  God Bless.

Dear Cathy and Family: So very sorry to hear of your loss of your wonderful sister, Betsy. When I met her, I found her to be a very charming and gracious lady full of life and many interests. Please accept my deepest sympathy. You and your family are in my prayers.

Dear Joe, Travis, Tyler, sisters, step-kids, in-laws, grandkids, and all who loved Betsy,
I am so saddened for all of you.  Betsy was a most energetic woman--always so upbeat.  That smile of hers radiated a room! She showed her strength in so many ways.
I know you feel blessed knowing the impact she had on so many lives along the way... friends, kids, and family.  You must feel very proud of all that defined her.
I have a funny memory of Betsy and Joe.  We had travled for one of Travis' ceremonies and Greg & I were eating breakfast with them.  Joe got another table involved in a prank.  He took food (I think syrup) from their table when they got up to get something, and Betsy was in shock that he'd do such a thing. We got a great laugh out of that one!
I'm sure there were hundreds of similar stories that could be told by many...
With my deepest sympathy and love,
Vicki Wells

Joe and family,
We want extend our condolences to you and your family.
Betsy was a wonderful person that we cared for very much. We will miss her.
Larry & Carol

Betsy and I met when we were in 7th grade.  Military brats.  We didn't have friends that went through time.  Except each other.  I am so grateful she was my friend.  And so very sad she is gone. When we were in high school she showed me the outfit she wanted to be buried in. She was very particular about clothes.  I remember the dress but, negligent friend that I am, had forgotten the accessories.  I asked her about it recently and she just laughed.  We laughed a lot. I never believed she would actually die.  Not in high school and not with this terrible illness. The loss is unimaginable.  I am grateful to have known her and been her friend.

Thoughts and prayers are with you on the loss of a very special lady.
She will be missed by many.

Come back, Betsy!
I knew you for 40 years--let's have 40 more. Sorry for you, Joe, Travis, Tyler, Cathy, & Renee. I'd love to hear that squealing laugh right now, so I wouldn't be trying not to cry. Randy (Randall) Wells. Betsy was like my sister for many years.  I loved to be with her and laugh uproariously so many times. She was a bright spot in my life.  I can't imagine your lives without her.  She is so loved and missed.  Joe, Travis, Tyler, Cathy and Renee my heart cries for you.  Love, Margie

Her smiles and dedication to everyone will long be remembered.
Merry Mixers have lost a very dear
and loving friend in Betsy. Our thoughts and prayers to all in the family.
                    Love,
           Spence & Betty Boudinot

Dear Joe,
We were so saddened to hear of Betsy's illness and death.  We were just getting to know her and her delightful personality.  Our prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Joe,Travis,and Tyler
Betzy and her smile made such a difference in so many peoples lifes. I got to know Betzy through Heather as the two of them grew very close to each other. I know each of us will cherish our own special memories and share them often.  We love you guys.

Your sunny disposition remains with those who knew you.

Dear Joe, Travis, Tyler and family,
Mike and I are so sorry to hear about Aunt Betsy. I was always very fond of her. She was so sweet and loving to me, she once knew my grandparents well, and she had many happy times with my parents that I know they'll always cherish. Our love and thoughts are with you now.

Anytime I think of Betsy I see her beautiful smile and the sparkle in her eyes.  She was one of the most positive and caring people I have ever known.  I just regret that she and I didn't have more time to spend together.  Cathy and Renee - you were given a special gift in your sister.  I know that your happy memories of her will sustain you through this time of loss.  You are in my prayers and thoughts.

With my deepest sympathy.  My thoughts and prayers goes out to all of you.

My prayers are with Betsy's family. She was my best friend; loving and forgiving.  I have years of good memories shared with Betsy.  I will see her again in Heaven. Love to Joe, Travis and Tyler.  Pam Mays Swope

Joe, Tyler, Travis, Renee, Cathy and family--
  Kaila and I are so sad to hear of Betsy's passing.  We share your grief and loss.  A loved one has gone from us, too.  Much love, Cap and Kaila.

Betsy was the best!! I know her from her countless hours volunteering for the Greeley Museums. I don't know how we'll get by without her boundless energy, enthusiasm, always smiling face and kind words for everyone she came into contact with. She leaves a huge hole in our hearts. It was a privilege and joy being her friend for the years she was with us.
