To all of Betty's(my Poopsie)family,I miss her so much already she was a great lady with a sense of humor to match.Through all her ups and downs she always had a smile and a kiss for me every morning.And she always had a comment about my fingernails even though she saw them all the time she always had to tell me how much she liked them.I truely wish I could have been there to say goodbye to her.I offer all her family my deepest sympathies and take comfort in knowing that Betty is in a much better place and at peace.
