Dear Jane and family, I am truly saddened to hear of this great loss. Your Mom was such a beautiful, kind, and fun-loving lady! As a kid I spent a great deal of time at your house and quickly developed a deep admiration for Betty's easy-going nature and her abundance of patience in any situation. I hope that the wonderful memories you all share will, in time, help to ease the gaping hole in your hearts. Love Val Sincere condolences from the Johnston family - Staff, Val, & Doug
