Such a lovely lady. Prayers for comfort and peace for her family.
She was a wonderful neighbor in Austin
Betty was so well loved by her friends and family. Our family was friends with the Watson’s in Austin,TX, and we all loved Betty & Haskell so very much. We have great memories of them and their daughters and are so grateful for the joyful, wonderful life that Betty was blessed to live!
Betty was such a lovely lady, with a joyful spirit and a playful, positive attitude. She always had a smile on her face, a poem in her heart, and a song on her lips.
She was an example for all of us. I’m blessed to have known and shared her company, while caring for her the past 6 years. I will miss you Betty!
????When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be!!
