Betty jo and margie have been friends since the 5th grade, We use to cruise the beach, go to pep rallies, football games and so many other things. I got her a date with my husbands brother. They have been married 55 years. I will miss calling her every other day. She was my good friend and we will all miss her. I know she has a spot in heaven. She is our guardian angel watching over us. May she rest in peace.
