    Hi David & Jean & family

    I was so shocked and saddened to read of Betty’s passing on Sunday. I wish I would have known she was ill- I could have visited her. But that’s not to be. She was a great friend although we did not see each other as much in the last few years, she was still a very special friend. I am not able to go tomorrow to the funeral as I am working but I hope you know how much I loved and cared for her. Please accept my deepest heartfelt sympathies.

    I hope you will email me back and maybe send me a funeral card for a keepsake.

    My deepest regrets. Love Anne

    You are in my prayers.
