Message: Thank you for your news columns and your friendship.

Message: I didnt know Betty all that well but found out so much more about her reading her columns; they were always fun and informative and was so sad when they were discontinued; what a mistake the Republican made. I'll always keep the poems she sent me with her cards......RIP Betty

Message: We are so heartbroken to hear the news about Betty. Betty was a part of our lives for many many years. She took great pride in holding down the fort and taking care of Jaimee & Justin, and the whole neighborhood for that matter. She was a part of our family. Our hearts and prayers go out to Betty's entire family. We found out over the years just how important each and every one of you were to her. Her family was everything to her and fortunately she made us a part of her family. She was such a great lady. She will be dearly missed.

Message: I remember back growing up, Betty and her then husband, Gerald Hayes lived down the road from my family.

Message: You were one of my favorites, Aunt Betty! I still have every poem and card you sent me. I looked forward to them each year. You will be missed! Love💖

Message: We will miss you. Our Birthdays and Christmas' will not be the same! Tell my loved ones and my Dad hello!! You were loved by all.

Message: Loved, loved reading her column. When we moved here in 1984 I learned a lot about this community from her column. She'll be missed

Message: Rest in peace Betty, you were loved by many.
