I met you when I was 16.  After Charlie  and I got married we spent a lot of weekends together. You taught me how to cook, you helped me get a job, you let  me stay with you when Charlie was out of town! You shared your children  with us. You taught me laugh and enjoy life! You were always there for us! We'll miss your laugh.... you telling Charlie " Your so smart". You are one of a kind! Betty you may have left us a heartache no one can heal, but the MEMORIES no one can steal! We miss you! Love from all the Viera's  and Baca's


Betty, you will be missed by all. You were not my grandmother, but I knew how special of a grandmother, a mother, and a person you were. I know you are in a better place.

Betty,

When I first got together with Tommy I couldn’t believe he also had a grandma Betty. And then I met you and couldn’t believe how much you were like my grandma Betty!   The silliness, the laughs, the spunkiness , the sass. I will forever cherish the times we had with you and so thankful you were there with us for the wedding. I almost felt like since my grandma couldn’t be there with us you were there in her place, it couldn’t have been any better . Thank you for loving me like I was family from the moment you met me. Isabella will grow up knowing how much her great grandma loved her too . I’m so thankful I had to you in my life. Say hello too my grandma for me pretty please and give her a big hug .  We Love you always and forever.



MOM ! I ‘ve called you 3 times, check your messages. It’s 100* here, I need to know what your trick is to fix the A.C. ??

My condolences to the family & all who loved her. I was introduced to Betty by her son Mike in 1986. He became my best friend. I will remember all the good times we shared on family trips to Catalina , Big Bear , holidays & celebrating birthdays. Betty was one of a kind big personality and full of life. She made the best tamales in the world when I took them to work I became her tamale runner for all my co-workers they love them  so much she couldn't keep up with the demand. Her memory will live on in our hearts forever. Our family is keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Our deepest sympathy to Debbie and the family, your mother was loved by all and will remain in our memories.

Dear  Betty, you will surely be missed by all. Thank you for being a loving caring friend to me these past 6 years.  I will miss you greatly, I just can't believe you are gone,  I will miss seeing your smiling face and hearing your laughter as we drove to pick up my mom for Church.  I enjoyed hearing you and my mom sharing stories about your lives.  I will miss the Fellowship we  shared after Church while eating boleos, donuts, coffee and whatever food people would bring.  You will be greatly missed at all the Church potlucks, your Tamales and pork meat were delicious, so were your deserts. I will miss seeing you and Trixie at the dog park were we had time to sit and chat.  God speed Betty, until we meet again.

Love your friends Maria & Gabe

John 14:1-3 NKJV
1 "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.
2 In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.

I have so enjoyed having Betty as a sister in Christ.  She was beautiful and warm and had a heart to bless us with delicious treats.  We are all feeling a deep loss and have no way to pay our respects.  Our hearts are with you all and please know she has a fellowship that loves her and will miss her tremendously. 
Sonia Quiroz

It was such a blessing to see Betty every Sunday morning as part of our Bethel Family. Betty would arrive at church with my mom and my sister, she joined us for fellowship after church service and for our potlucks. Betty will be greatly missed, but we know her current residence is in HEAVEN with JESUS!!
2 Corinthians 5:8 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

God Bless you sister Betty, we will see you soon! Love Pastor Ray & Sonia and Family


Lamento mucho su pérdida verdaderamente la muerte es nuestro peor enemigo, por eso Jehova Dios nos promete que acaba pronto. En Revelación 21:4 (Traducción del nuevo mundo de las santas escrituras) dice: y limpiará toda lágrima de sus ojos y la muérte no será más ni existirá ya más lamento ni dolor las cosas anteriores han pasado. Esto quiere decir que nuestros seres queridos ya no morirán y los que han muerto como dice Hechos 24:15 habrá resurrección es decir que volveremos a verlos. Para encontrar más información lo animo a que tenga la oportunidad de buscar el sitio de internet jw.org/es ahí podrá encontrar mucha más información y textos Bíblicos que nos confortan en momentos difíciles como estos.
