Betty

My best friend called this morning to let me know that her mother passed away today. Betty was a super woman. She was a devout Catholic that raised 5 wonderful children. I was fortunate to be close friends with her two youngest children, Sharon and Carrie.

Sharon and I met in 1984 at college and became instant friends. Over the years, Sharon's family has made me a part of their family. Betty and Bud were always kind, caring and very welcoming of me. I have many fond memories of Betty. I am very sad today.

Although she had been sick for awhile and her passing was a blessing to end her suffering, I am sad.

I'm sorry you've lost someone dear. That is never easy. I've had several friends who have lost friends or family members in recent days. it's so hard.
