So sorry to hear about Betty's passing, but we know she is in a much better place, Our Heaven. Momma was so happy to see her. What a beautiful sweet lady, she sang at our wedding.

To the best Sunday School teacher ever.. Love, JoAnn Miss Betty is now in Heaven's choir. I will always remember her telling me -- "I love you - but- JESUS loves you more. Kim

Betty was one of the most inspirational singers I've ever known. Raise your hand if her rendition of "Fill My Cup Lord" or "I Am Satisfied With Jesus" ever touched your heart.

Betty blessed us so much and in so many ways! She was introduced to me, when we moved to Bmt in 1984, as the lady who “prayed Bert through medical school.” Later she was well known for her ready smile, laugh, joke or hug. She even did some stand up comedy at one of Bert’s family events. In recent years, she was best known for her now-famous, “I love you, but God loves you more!” What a legacy to be known for: 1) prayer life 2) love and laughter 3) pointing people to God! She will be missed. Til we see you again, sweet Betty. “We love you, but God loves you more!”

BJ, YOU AND DR HANNA WERE A BLESSING TO ME WHEN MY SON WAS BORN IN 1969. I LOVED YOU THEN AND STILL. PRAYING FOR YOUR FAMILY.
