Wonderful cousin, so kind to me as a child like a cool, fun aunt. And a great cousin and friend as an adult. Lot’s of family celebrations, card playing, laughter, family joy and pain shared together. Great listener and talker. She loved her family and was good to me and my immediate family. I will miss our Betty.

I worked with Betty for most of my 20+years at AUL (OneAmerica). She was a fantastic lady who had very much to do with my own success. She was an expert on contracts and financing, and an incredible friend. I have thought about her often since I retired in 2006. She was a great Mom who always talked about Harry. I am a better person for knowing Betty, she will forever be missed until I see her again in Heaven. Jeff Meyers
