Dear Betsy, Craig, Matthew, and Alicia,
Your mom and grandmother was a very very special person.  I could tell she loved you very very much. I always looked forward to Grandparents Day, because I knew she would be there not only supporting Alicia but also supporting the program and me!  That meant so much to me. I’ll never forget and still have the letter she wrote.  I treasure it. 
She certainly is watching and loving from above. 
Love,
Lynn Grace

Dear Betsy, Alicia and family,

May God grant you strength, peace and surround you with love during this time. 

Sincerely, 

Preston Geary and family

My deepest condolences to Harold, Betsy and Nettie and their families. What a huge loss of a wonderful and caring woman whom I have known for 62 years ever since the church in Sassamansville. She has been such an important part of Shepherd of the Hills Church for so many years. I remember how many beautiful eulogies she gave for many of our members over the years. She will be missed. May God comfort your broken hearts and bring you peace.
