I loved Mrs. Betty Mae. She was such a sweet and kind lady and she always treated everybody with such love and care. She was a bright spot in my childhood memories of growing up in Lucama. God bless you in these days of grief and loss. She will surely be missed.

Your mother was an absolute delight to work with at Springfield Middle School! I will never forget her and Mrs. Miles working together in the reading lab. She was such a ray of sunshine and a blessing to all who knew her! She was an wonderful inspiration and adored her family! I enjoyed seeing her at school as she continued supporting the grandchildren in their school and 4-H activities. The last time I saw her was at one of John's basketball games at Springfield and she was as lovely as always. I know you will miss her, but you have many fond memories of the love, joy and special (as well as ordinary) times you spent with her. She is definitely in God's wonderfully loving arms!
Blessings to all of you! You are in my thoughts and prayers as you grieve your loss.
