Shocking to hear of both Bettie and Ben (as I've been back in Ohio for almost 2 yrs). We had some great conversations in the drive-way and Bettie was the dearest. I loved how Ben protected and care for her. May God bless the family and my prayers will continue for all of you.

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your parents. Your father was always very attentive to your mother when I was in their home doing handy work for them. I always enjoyed Ben recreating Tony the Tiger for me. They will both be greatly missed.

I am so saddened & breath taken away learning of the passing of your Mom & now, your Dad. They were so special to me. A wonderful, special and loving couple. Many many prayers to all of the family.... Love, Kathy Nishnic, Centaurus Financial...
