FAREWELL FROM ALL OF US, BETTY:
SO VERY SPECIAL, STRONG AND WARM AND ARE THE WONDERFUL MEMORIES EACH OF US HAS OF YOU. MY MEMORIES OF YOU AND CONRAD GO WAY BACK TO LAKEWOOD HIGH SCHOOL YEARS.
YOUR TOP PRIORITIES IN LIFE WERE YOUR FAMILY AND A COMMITMENT TO YOUR CHURCH.
YOU GAVE YOUR ALL TO YOUR FAMILY, BUT, AT THE SAME TIME, YOU GAVE YOUR ALL TO THE DIFFERENT ROLES YOU ASSUMED IN LIFE.
YOU WERE A MAGNIFICENT DAUGHTER, SISTER, WIFE, MOTHER, GRANDMOTHER, GREAT GRANDMOTHER, AUNT, AND FRIEND. YOU GRACED OUR HISTORY, AND, YOU GRACED OUR LIVES.
NOW, YOU HAVE LEFT FOR GREENER PASTURES; A SPIRITUAL PLACE WHERE YOU HAVE JOINED MEMBERS OF YOUR FAMILY WHO HAVE PASSED ON.
YOUR LOVED ONES AND YOUR FRIENDS FEEL A THOUSAND TIMES RICHER FOR HAVING HAD YOU IN THEIR LIVES, BUT, GOD KNOWS, YOU WILL BE MISSED.
SOMEONE WROTE BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS ON THE DEATH OF A BEAUTIFUL PERSON THAT IS APPROPRIATE FOR YOU:
"AND WHEN SHE SHALL DIE, TAKE HER AND
CUT HER OUT IN LITTLE STARS
AND SHE WILL MAKE THE FACE OF HEAVEN SO FINE THAT ALL THE WORLD WILL BE IN LOVE WITH NIGHT AND PAY NO WORSHIP OF THE GARISH SUN."
GOOD-BYE, BETTY LEAH, YOU ARE NOW LIKE THE WIND; WE CANNOT SEE YOU …WE WILL ALWAYS FEEL YOU.
JOE GERACE
