Donna, I was shocked as was everyone on the passing of your mother "Betty". Although I only knew her for a short time, she was a loving and great neighbor. She cared very deaply for her family and friends and we will all greatly miss her. She was fun to have around and had a great love for the people around her. I have already missed her house side chats and walking around the neighborhood after I moved away, and I know that everyone else will greatly miss her stolls around the development. Don I know you will miss Betty the most as she was a great part of your life. I know that she will be waiting for all of us with that smile and wit she gave on a daily basis. With Love, Debbie..

Dear Donna and Family
There is comfort in friendship,hope in prayer, peace in love.

Sharing in your sorrow
with love and friendship.
Weep not for me though I am gone into that gentle night.
Grieve if you will, but not for long upon my soul's sweet flight.
I am at peace, my soul's at rest
There is no need for tears.
For with your love I was so blessed.
For all those many years.
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone.
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.
Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife.
Please do not dwell upon my death,
But celebrate my life.

I hope this poem helps in your time or sorrow.

Lynn,

Again, thank you for bringing the photos for the funeral. It has been a tough month, especially for my dad. He is so lost without my mom and struggles every day to come to terms with the why and why now part of all this, just as I am sure you did for Sherri. It is comforting to know that there are many people who my mom touched throughout the years and in that way she will be with all of us in some small way.

Take care, love
Donna

Donna, it´s a pain in my heart to hear about your lost. Oh, my Lord, you have to be devastated, but Lord, gave you peace and serenity in this difficult time. I like to be with you, but feel a big hug and my presence will be with you always.
That´s no easy for all of you, but you mother was in the path to Heaven.
Your mother was in a beauty place with God.

God bless you all,

Love you,

Dear Donald and Donna,
We are so sorry for the loss of Aunt Betty. Although we are so far apart, we share the pain that you are going through and keep you all in our prayers.
When we were up there last year, Aunt Betty was so good to the twins. She had a devotion to animals that we just have the utmost respect for. She showed us sympathy and caring when Dad passed away and she and Uncle Donald helped us to understand Dad a little bit more with all the information and pictures they showed us. Aunt Betty had the grace to make us feel welcomed at a difficult time and we will always remember that.
We copied the picture to our genealogy file of Aunt Betty, from here. It will be there, along with the picture of Uncle Donald and Aunt Janet that you just sent.
Although we can't be there physically, you are all in our thoughts and prayers. If there is anything we can do, please let us know.
We love you all, so very much.

Dana, Karen & Family
