Betty was warm and friendly who enjoyed conversation and made you feel comfortable. She loved her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and was proud of them. Holiday gatherings with extended family including great food, along with laughter and viewing home movies was a favorite. Betty kept physically active throughout her life, swimming, bike riding, or walking in her neighborhood. She loved the beach and enjoyed the warmth of the sun and would bring a few slices of bread for the seagulls. Her sense of adventure led her to explore many beautiful areas in our country and abroad to a few tropical Islands. Riding on motorcycles gave her a sense of freedom and exhilaration once she fearlessly rode one herself. Betty enjoyed socializing with her friends, playing cards and bingo. These moments brought laughter and joy to her life also the appreciation of those who never forgot her while she was living at Costal Pointe, the phone calls and visits were much appreciated.
