I never had the opportunity or pleasure of meeting Betty. I have, however, worked with her daughter, Lisa Smith, for quite some time. If even a piece of who Lisa is, as a person, is reflective of Betty Stuart's life....well then, Mrs. Stuart, you can rest peacefully knowing your life has had, and continues to have, a positive impact on many people. Condolences to the family, and admiration to Betty Jane Stuart.

I remember Mrs. Stuart as a sweet down the street and around the corner neighbor. She was always kind to me. I am sorry for your loss, but I know she had a great life, and is enjoying God's promised afterlife.
