I was sorry to read about Bettie's passing. She was quite a lady. I became acquainted with her while working at a doctor's office in West Des Moines 15-20 years ago. She was always so pleasant to me, funny and easy to get along with. I was a lucky recipient of one of her crocheted afghans that she made to match a new sofa I had purchased. It was a complete surprize and totally unexpected. She also made two more for me in Iowa State colors to be sent to my great-nieces in Alaska for Christmas one year. Our paths would cross in the following years when I was working at Methodist Medical Plaza. It was always so nice to run into her and visit and get caught up on her family and activities. Please accept my sincere sympathy.
