Condolences for
Elizabeth R. Reynolds (Bettie)

I was so Blessed to have my Mom for as long as I did. She was beautiful, strong, loving, funny, adorable, artistic, gentle, caring, creative, feisty, thoughtful, stubborn, determined, selfless and too many other amazing things to list. My Mom raised my 2 sisters and me completely on her own and filled our childhood with the most wonderful memories. She has always made every holiday, birthday and Christmas wonderful and special. She sacrificed so much and never, ever complained. She always told us how much she loved us and always showed it in a million ways. She adored being a Grammie and was the best ever! My Mom touched so many people’s lives in her short 70 years. She was so thrilled that she was able to skydive just 4 short months ago on her birthday. I’ve always been so proud to call her Mom and I am even more so now. My Mom fought so hard to beat the cancer everyday since we got that terrible diagnosis. She fought so hard to beat this and showed such amazing grace and dignity. I didn’t think it was possible to love and admire her more than I already did. I would give anything to have even one more day with my Mom. I miss everything about her. Her adorable ‘accent’, the cheesy smile we would give each other. The inside jokes. The beautiful handmade gifts every Christmas and the beautiful drawings on every greeting card envelope. Watching Riverdale and the Crown together lol. My Mom was the best listener and could always make you feel better no matter what. She was everything to me. We did everything together and I feel so lost without her. She touched so many lives on her short time on earth. But I believe she is in Heaven with Jesus and my Gram and my Uncle Joe and all of the people we love who have left us. I believe more than ever that only the good die young. I have the best Guardian Angel watching over me and I can’t wait to be with my Mom again someday.

My heart is with you Michelle, Suzanne & Valerie. In this season of your LIfe I know its difficult and no words that any one can say can take away your pain right now. Time will help heal your heart & take heart that your Mom is an Angel in Heaven watching down on you all. Her Spirit will Live forever with you & all your memories you have to Cherish.

Your mom was always so good to me and as her "Godchild" I know that she was choosen by my parents because of the Love she's always had in her heart for many! I felt proud that she was not only my Aunt but also my Godmother. That will always hold a special place in my heart. I sign off with this. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 . I love you all !!

I am sad to say that I cannot attend the services for this dear woman. She was a wonderful, fun, energetic woman to be around. I am thankful for the friendship she had with my Mom - Lorraine. She will be missed.

I can feel your pain I lost my George on June 5th found him dead he was 70
Your mom made me smile all the time and her beautiful Christmas cards as we both loved the season
I wish this pain on no one I can really feel it
When George died they said I understand and my inner self said no you do not but I smiled
Love all of you
Joy

I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. Me and Karen were just talking about your Mom. I did not realize how sick she was. But now she is with our Mom watching over us all. Heaven received another angel. Tell your sister's you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Me and your Mom would facebook and this morning her picture popped up. I did let Karen know. She is in South Carolina with Jessie getting her starting for college. I will always remember her giving me Gizmo. Even though we did not keep in touch she will always be a part in my heart. She was a part of my life that I will never forget. We had good times together. So keep in touch I know you do with Karen. You were all our adopted family. I know we started out being neighbors that did not get along but we ended up being the best of friends with Betty and her girl's. Take care.
