I remember when i was in kindergarten, my mom would wake up early making sure I was dressed neat and hair fix perfectly everyday...that was until 1/2 way thru the school year I recieved a brand new hair cut. Yes from Bill....he cut my banges... to the scalp on one side and long on the other...I was so mad at him till he brought his bird to school. He found a baby and we all got to feed him oatmeal, that totally made up for the Edward Sissor Hands doo he gave me.

I am so sad for your loss. I have known you all for a long time and I wish there was some way to lessen what you are all going through. I know the joy that Bill and his family brought to Betty. The pictures that were showing at the visitation brought back a lot of good memories. I am praying for God to give you comfort and strength and peace. Donna Gabrysch
