Dear Barber Family ; Sorry to be late in sending this message but computers have a mindd of their own.I am at a loss for words to express my feelings even now. Betty was providing her smile and words of comfort to me just acouple of weeks ago. Our card gang is slowly going on the heavenly journey. We have fond memories of years of being together and fun times when we could say what we wanted to and not be concerned about hurting feelings.The comment was made to me the other night that Betty was a great Mother and I thought that remark summed it up to a great degree. God will give us the comfort we need and Betty has set a good example for us to follow with our families. It was a pleasure to see all the Griffiths, Barbers, Deans and friends there to express their love and family loyalty. Thanks for sharing Betty with us and May God bless you all. Skip

To the Barber and Griffith Families, So sorry to hear of Betty's passing. She was such a sweet person. I (Deanna) have fond memories of being around her in my childhood years as I spent much of my time with the Elon Griffith family. I also enjoyed her company during her weekly visits to the hair salon....Prayers are with you.
