"To Betty's family, Betty was a good gal. I have known her for years. I remember all the times I visited with her, grandma Rose, and Virginia in the kitchen at the Kallenberger house when I was growing up. Good memories. Betty was blessed to have her niece Linda and husband Bill to watch over and care for her. Betty Smith"
In loving memory of
Betty Jean Nussbaum
