Betty spent her life traveling and helping others take their trips of a lifetime. She loved traveling and being a part of other people's journeys. Her best work was helping her children and grandchildren travel through life's ups and downs with heads held high and hope in their hearts. She was always quick with her opinion and her love. She will be greatly missed, but we celebrate her final journey to the greatest destination ever and her eternal home of heaven. The family would like to express a special thanks to all of the special people at Azalea Estates who truly loved her and took amazing care of her and us.
