to the family of betty I just want to say my prayers are with you. But to Betty I love you and I am happy you are with your husband. It was a great honor to have taken care of you at (view pointe)Bethesda, I love you very much and miss you dearly. And to the family of Betty she always wanted me to put on her lipstick and she may have talked about how I was her country girl from n.c and her earrings I tryed to give them to her everyday. And I also visited her when she was at the rehab for her bronchittis along with felicia and monica we were so happy when she came home. So to tell you we loved her sooo much and it hurts that she is gone but I am glad she is with her husband
