Such a lovely woman and kind soul. Our Aunt Betty will be missed deeply from our visits and holiday gatherings. She was the light of the party and her smile was infectious. God Bless Aunt Betty. You will be missed.

So sad to hear of Aunt Betty's passing. Such a sweet tough and classy lady. I so cherish my last visit with her last July. She had that great big smile that lit up a room. She always took an interest in my kids no matter how long it was between our visits. I am happy she will be reunited with Jen and Uncle Max. My deepest condolences to Rick and Carol and BeeGee.

It is hard to imagine a world without Betty, who was truly a lady in the best sense of the word. She was a treasure in our lives from our first days in State College. Al's patients often tell us of her no nonsense nursing and her compassion for them. I thought she would go on forever. Love to all of the family and our heartfelt condolences. She was truly proud of all of you. Love, Avis Jones

Hi Avis, Carole just told me she spoke with you, and thank you so much for your kind words. She always kept me updated on you and the good Doctor :) Please pass along my regards to Al.

To Betty's beloved family. We have known your dear one for many years, as a fellow parishioner at OLV as well as members of the St Vincent de Paul Society. She was such a dear, sweet, kind lady and we feel blessed to have known her. She will live on in your hearts and in many fond memories. We pray that your grief will ease in time and that you can entrust her to our Lord's gentle care until you see her again. Fondly, Millie and Ken Demaree

I will always remember Betty for her kind heart and strong faith. I used to get a kick out of her looking at me and saying "Oh Traci" when I would blurt something out that was inappropriate. She truly loved her children and grandchildren and will be missed. Sending much love to you all! Traci and Bob Hammond

Thank you Traci, Betty loved you!
