We are certainly sorry for your loss. We really did not know Betty, but we always enjoyed visiting with cousin Joe when he used to come down for the annual Welty Reunion. Again, our condolences are extended.
So sorry to heard of the passing of Betty Jean! Seen that it is private. God Bless and Comfort you Pam & Pat and your families. You are in our thoughts and Prayer at this time!! God's Peace and love cover you all.
Sorry to hear of Betty Jean's passing. I hadn't heard from her for years, but I remember her from going to Grandma White's. Love and Blessings to Pat and Pam, and your families.
We only met once when I was little, but I will always remember how much Bettyjean meant to my mother,Geneva. Rest In Peace
I am so sorry for your loss. Betty Jean was our oldest first cousin. She was always upbeat and interested in life. I know she had many adventures. Every conversation I have had with her reflected her love of Pat and Pam and her wonderful grandchildren. My Mom always talked of Betty Jean and Aunt Ruby and I finally got to meet Betty Jean in the early 70's. We didn't keep in touch as often as we should have. It has always been my hope and prayer that Betty Jean escaped dementia. All the White girls had it and the rest of us cousins just hope that Betty Jean had her memory to the end. I tried to find your address. Again, so sorry for your loss. Love, Leslie
