I am so sorry to hear of Grandma Betty's passing. She was a truly wonderful person who always made me feel welcome. Some of my fondest memories of my teenage years are from hanging out at her house on Sandy Lane after school with Jhen, Jason and Josh. What a tremendous gift she was, to everyone around her.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your mother and I were neighbors on Henschen Circle for many years. When my husband and I moved to the Mansfield area, your mother sent us a housewarming planter of shamrocks. The planter continues to thrill in our new home and will always remind me of your mother and her caring spirit. My life has been blessed by having her as my neighbor.

I am so sorry to hear of Betty's passing. We had been neighbors for years. She was always upbeat even when she was having health problems. It was a pleasure to talk with her as she was sitting on her porch enjoying the sun and warmth. She'll be missed.
