Uncle Al and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. What wonderful memories I have of Aunty Betty from childhood and all the years growing up. She was such a positive person and I can't say I ever heard an unkind word come out of her mouth. She had such a beautiful smile and I can hear her laugh even now. We were all blessed to have such a wonderful Aunt in our life. I recall her making pancakes for all of us after a day of tobogganing with Uncle Al and the cousins. She was so loved and respected by us all. My deepest condolences to the family. God Bless each one of you! - Posted by: Sheryl Redahl (Niece) on: Apr 20, 2017
