Word of the passing of your mother came to me while I was visiting my son, and I hasten to convey our deepest sympathy. As quilts wrap us and keep us warm, so too is my heart with wonderful memories. The time spent with your mother creating a "road" map filled with my boys' T-shirts, measuring, cutting, ironing, stitching, and special conversation with some tears and giggles are forever in my heart. Her smiles, shiny eyes, and the joy she would stitch into the lives of others won't be forgotten.Your father and mother are a piece of the quilt of my life and for that I am truly blessed.Love to you all. Cindy Smith Neff and family.

I had the great pleasure to spend only a few hours peppered over the years with both Betty and Don. They both were always so very nice and upbeat—a joy to be around. I had the privilege of going to school with Scott and I'm proud to call Sally my sister in law, but more like the sisiter I never had.Our hearts go out to the entire family.Steve and Angela Torrens

We were very saddened to hear of the passing of Aunt Betty. We have fond memories of our family reunions during our visits which were few & far between because of our physical distance. Aunt Betty personified kindness and love of family. She was a very nurturing person and will certainly be missed but surely remembered. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to the family and we know we are all blessed because of her influence in our lives.Love and Aloha,Rob and LouisaJeff and ElenaKelvie, Anthony, Damien, Alana and Andrea
