"It was with great sadness that Craig and I were not able to be there today. However, it was a blessing that we were able to visit with Aunt Bettie not long ago. May it comfort you that she is with The Lord and standing beside The Lord is Harold, Mathew, Teddy, Roy, Bud, Debbie and many more that are welcoming her home."

Tributes
"Bettie was blessed with a gift for teaching that touched many lives. Not only to us as family members and friends, but to the students she embraced. Bettie had a way of communicating that resonated far beyond what most teachers ever manage to achieve. Teaching was not just a job for her, it was a passion from her heart and a gift from God."
