To the dear family of Betty,
Betty and I graduated together from LCHS in ’53, and she is remembered affectionately by me for her loving and kind ways.   She loaned me her beautiful bolero jacket for a May procession in senior year and blessed me with this very unselfish gesture.   She was absolutely gorgeous as a young woman and, from her newspaper photo, I can see that beauty continued throughout her life, since it obviously began deep within her being.    May you, as family, find your comfort in the Lord Jesus Christ Who longs to wrap His loving arms around you all.
Maureen (McEvoy)
