I recall with fondest memories, the many times when Betty spoke with my mother Beatriz Orozco. Her conversations were warm and kind, (not unusual for Betty). Her visits filled the heart with warmth. She just knew the right words to speak. All was better because she was there.
The world would be brighter if everyone could adopt her kindness.
Our sincere condolences to all the family from Bea, Beatriz, and Martin.
Betty was such a nice woman and will be missed by a lot of people. Thank you for the good memories and laughs I shared with you. I will miss you!
