Dear Buck, Barbara, Tim & family, I have the fondest memories of Betty as a kind, loving, beautiful, fun-loving aunt with a generous heart and a spirit of adventure. I admired her and was especially grateful for her kindness toward my mom. Although her passing is difficult I take inspiration in knowing that she and Buck had an amazing lifelong love story that is rare in this world. Keeping her memory locked like a treasure in my heart! Sorry I cannot be with you at the memorial but please know my thoughts are with you all. Love Liz
