Many memories of spending time with Betty and Howard at their farm: enjoying a glass of Betty’s fine ice tea on the front porch, discussing the ways of the world. She will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you and may your memories of Bettty and Howard give you Peace. Love, Max and Roby
Larry Your mother will be sadly missed. I will always think of her when spring time comes and the beautiful flowers are in bloom, as she always loved a fresh bouquet on her table. Love and Prayers are with you and the family at this time.
My great sympathies to your family at your loss of Betty. She was a great lady, friendly, the picture of a great farm wife and steady member of Mt. Gilead.
Gary and Larry: We are sorry for the loss of your Mother. I remember the great times growing up and all your mother did when I use to visit the farm to pick up Gary. Francie and I are in Florida on vacation and unable to attend the service today. You have our sympathy. Neil & Francie Cox
Gary, My thoughts and prayers for comfort are with you during your time of loss. I only saw your Mom on a half dozen occasions or so when we were in school together, and maybe twice since, and even though you and I haven’t seen each other for many years, the bonds we shared as classmates and good buddies is not erased by time. May you find some sense of peace during this time. Yours, Larry Gajderowicz
