I am so very sorry to hear of Betty's passing. She was as sweet as honey and always smiling.  Can't imagine how much you all miss her but, so thankful for the reunion to come.  May the Lord comfort you with sweet memories as He heals your heart. 
Prayers for all of you during this difficult time. 
Much love, Susie Logan

Aunt Betty is best described with one word….family.
She was a wonderful Aunt and made Tennessee home for me. Whether it was the holidays, family reunion or just a visit, I couldn’t wait to get to Uncle Tony and Aunt Betty’s house and share in the family moments of dinner together, playing board games or just watching TV.
I am going to miss our long phone calls and talking about life and all the great memories of our “down home” visits.
I will miss her laughter and especially the love and concern she showed to me and my husband before his passing.  I can only say how fortunate and blessed I am to have loved and been loved by someone so kind and caring.
To Susan, Eric, Ashley, Darryl, Margaret and family my thoughts and prayers are with you. Much love to all.

Darrell, Susan and family, I am so very sorry for your loss! I loved your Mom so much. She was a second Mother to me and I am blessed with so many precious memories. She never failed to send me a birthday card with sweet words. I know that she is reunited with your Dad and all of her family members and we will all meet someday. I wish there were words to heal your pain! Know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers! Love you! Kim Keeling Schnicke 

Betty was always kind to me. She was my church buddy at Sevier Heights at the 9:15 services. I will miss her and that experience dearly. Rest in Peace my friend🙏

Darrell, Susan and Family:
We are so sorry to hear about Betty.  She was such a sweet sweet lady.  We know where she's at there's not a doubt in the world about that.  We have such fond memories from going to Moreland Heights with her and Mom going to Sevier Heights with her.  She will be truly missed by everyone that knew her.  We love you guys, you are like family.  Mom is fighting sickness most of the time and not able to go out much, she wanted you all to know she loves you guys and is praying for you at this time. 

Susan, Darrell, and Family,
      There are no words that I could say that will ease your pain. The love that she shared with my family, especially my mother,  will never be forgotten. She was a wonderful neighbor and friend. You all are in my thoughts and prayers during this sad time and in the days ahead. 
Love you, 

Tony and Betty were like family to me and my entire family.  Tony’s father  and my father were very close.  Tony’s father (Jesse) was like a grandfather to me. There has been no other family in our life  that we have been that close  to so many family members.

Betty was such a wonderful , caring part of our Pastors Class. She was always doing something for our class, such as some tasty treat she'd made or getting set up for our morning coffee. She loved to serve in any way she could. We will all miss her. I pray God will comfort the family.

We were saddened to hear of Betty's passing!  She was one very sweet lady that sure loved her family!  We loved her laughter and her sweet soft voice!   And many memories of her and Tony together with their family!  She will be missed by many!  May God give all her family and friends His Peace as they are going through this grieving time!

Betty Ann was always one of the sweetest,and kindest persons I ever knew.  My first vivid memory of her was when she stayed with Grandma ,in the old house, when she was in high school.  She looked wonderful dressed in her band uniform for the Marching 99. 
Mom always looked forward to her phone calls keeping her up to date on family and friends.  She will be missed but now she is keeping Tony close.  All my love to the family.  Doug
