My sincere sympathy in the passing of Bette. She was a long-time member of the Purple Grove Women's Institute and hosted a meeting at her home where we all wore old-fashioned costumes and had a tea party. I enjoyed visiting her at R Villa. She'll be deeply missed in the area.
Dear Bette,
It's hard to believe you are gone, even though we talked about it so often. I know you are with our dear Lord now, so all is well. Stil there is this empty spot in my heart for you, my dear friend. Until we meet again. Love, " TJ "
