Life around IMMC will not be the same without Betty. Betty had so many friends throughout the campus. She is going to be missed by many. May God guide you in the right directions to give you peace and understanding for Gods plan for Betty and may God help heal your pain and ease your suffering. Remember the GOOD TIMES, for Betty is smiling and watching over all of you. I will keep you all in my prayers. God Bless.

What a loss for Betty's family and all of her friends. I had the pleasure of working with her for a number of years at IHS and watched as she progressed personally and professionally. Life wasn't always easy for Betty but she persevered!
She was a friend to so many of the other food service workers at the hospital. When she was on my shifts I knew she would be on top of things and if things weren't going right, I always knew she would let me know that as well.
Her boys were the focus of her attention and she talked about them often. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.
