Rest In Peace Betty…..One of my most vivid memories of Betty was her working at the Seaforth Hospital. When I started there ( a few moons ago) she was on her game and knew that place inside and out. Quite frankly I was more than a little scared of her! As the years went by, I got to know her only to find she was a gentle and kind soul! Glad I had the chance to get to know her better…..Deepest sympathy to her family. Now you have an angel who will be watching over you!
