A Tribute to Mrs. Betty I have so many good memories when I think about your many years of service in the nursery dept. at First United Methodist Church. As your helper for several of those years, I think of your kind and gentle caregiving to the smallest of our congregation. Over the years, you took care of them as newborns and toddlers, then watched as they became teenagers. Much to your delight, many of them returned to see you as high school and college students. Now, Jesus will have a precious, new angel to watch over Heaven's little ones. And you won't have to worry about them at all, Lord. Mrs. Betty has arrived. Marianne Gordon
