  1. In memory of Aunt Betty, I will eat dessert first. A bright light is gone but so many people with carry on for her.

  2. With love, Rick & Midori West has purchased Peace Lily 10″ for Jane “Betty” Walker

  3. I just heard of this sad news only yesterday. I was sorry to have missed the ceremonies. If anyone deserves honor and praise it is her. She was my friend Donny’s Mom. She was always so nice. Whenever I’d visit, she’d always ask if I needed anything to eat (probably because I was so short) Despite her ever-busy schedule she always found time to garden and do things around the house. She loved her baby Donny. She always made sure he had what he needed and there were many nights she would hear us get back and she’d come out just to make sure Donny was ok. She was the very definition of sweetness and grace. Now again together with Ed, and with Donny, I wish them most deserved peace eternal. My heartfelt condolences go out to Jim, Linda, Candy, Teri, Tom, Bob, Tony, all the spouses, partners, and quite frankly anyone who knew Betty as she was truly an angel on Earth. May she protect all us.
