Dear Judy, Ron and Kim, I am very sorry. Harry and Bette have wonderful children and grandchildren. Aunt Bette was, I am sure, the inspiration for the hot chocolate mugs with bird whistles on the handles that are a treasured memory for me. Now we will pray to your mother and grandmother1

Judy, Ron and family, I truly loved this Doughnut Queen. She just radiated so much joy and happiness to all who met her. I enjoyed her many visits. I am sure Harry is happy to have her by his side. I send my prayers and love. The clock now has A.M., P.M., and B.R.V. time. She is with me too.
