      Jim and I are so very sorry to hear of Betty’s passing. We will miss her and her melodious singing. There are songs when I (Linda) still hear Betty’s sweet Alto; I would listen for her gentle lead. We remain in self quarantine and will not be with you today. Our sympathy to the family. God give you peace and comfort.
