My grandma was better then you she the best and gave me popsicles.

Mom,
I remember meeting you, it was as if you had already been part of my life and we instantly connected. You always had a smile and kind words and that will always stay with me forever!! My favorite time of the year are the holidays, especially Christmas time. During that time I would always remember you helping us girls in the kitchen preparing the food and you were always calm and would never be stressed. I could count on you to fix my gravy because I could never make that, well I better start practicing. You were also there for Jaiden and her recitals and she really loved  having you there, and when you would come to Cassie's cheerleading competition. We will miss you tremendously and this earth will never be the same, we will always love you forever and ever. 💜💜

So many memories. From how hard she worked to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table, to her always being there to lend an ear when we were troubled. From childhood through my adult years, mom was a great listener and was always there to offer her support whether it be by knods of the head, a hug, or advice that would be offered in non-judgement way that let know your point of view mattered. She taught us independence while also teaching us that above all else, we were a family and one that would always be there for one another. Mom taught us to respect our elders, honesty is the best policy, treat all living souls with kindness, and to hold open the door for others. She taught me work hard, to do your best,  and to laugh often. She taught me to give of yourself for those internal  rewards that it brings, and that you will never be disappointed if you expect nothing in return. Last but not least, I remember her home cooking. She loved hosting family dinners that she would often spend hours preparing and where any and all friends were always welcome. Thank you Mom, I love you and will miss you.

Betty  had a smile that would light up the room and she always made you feel very special! I hate to think how my life may have turned out if I hadn't had that positive influence in it. So many fun memories, I can't pick just one. She was extremely understanding and supportive for everyone. My heart felt sympathy for you all during this difficult time of grief. Love you!


My mom had a fun sense of humor. She used to dress up by putting a mop on her head for hair, wear these incredibly weird false teeth and put on big baggy clothing.  She disguised herself and her voice so much that we couldn’t tell who she was.  She was always in on the practical jokes. My mom was the community mom for many of our friends. She was always encouraging kids to communicate with their parents.  Mom had a kind soul. We referred to her as the animal whisperer.  Any living creature in need, she would help if possible. 
She loved to dance! My aunt would tell me that when her and my dad got on he dance floor, people would step off to watch them.  They could jitterbug and waltz like pros.  Oh how I will miss her. 

My favorite memory of Betty is when we took her to get her first ever pedicure! She was such a beautiful woman inside and out. I am so grateful I got the pleasure of knowing her. Much love and prayers to her family. ❤️❤️❤️
