I am a friend of Gary's and had the opportunity to meet Betty when she came to Charlotte. I loved her vigor and forthrightness. She crocheted beautifully and I am thankful that I have one of her homemade ornaments, an angel, that she crocheted for me while in Charlotte several years ao. I have put it on my tree every year since and will continue to be hung in memory of her for my remaining years on this earth. She also made some awesome candy that she would make for Gary when she was in town. Thankfully, Gary was not too selfish in sharing it. She could also make you laugh with her stories and playing Bingo with her was a treat as well. I am sorry for your loss and I will continue to keep the family in my prayers for their healing and in celebrating the life she had while with us.##imported-begin##Donna Dize##imported-end##
