Dear Johnny and family, we are thinking of you at this time with sympathy, love and prayers. What a blessing to be part of such a happy and godly family. And now, as you celebrate Betty's happiness in being with the Lord, may you find comfort and peace in God's timing for all things. Lydia and Lynda have the flu, so
they couldn't come to the funeral, but Burke and I were blessed to see all of you.

I will surely miss Aunt Betty. She was my favorite Aunt and made the best macaroni and cheese dish in the world. Glad I got to see her at the last family reunion. My thoughts and prayers are with Uncle Johnny, Ronnie, Sharon, Karen and the rest of the family. Love you always.

Words cannot express our sympathy and shock over the passing of Aunt Betty. I never heard her raise her voice, she always had a smile, loved her family to the utmost and was a genuine Christian woman. Her macaroni and cheese was always the highlight of our family reunions. She will truly be missed. We love you.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Uncle Johnny and the rest of the family.
