Joyce and I were shocked when we read in the paper of Betty's death. We had just visited her on December 12 and had a nice visit at the Palms with her. We were good friends for many years, especially when Max was alive. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time.

We feel lucky to have known both Betty and Max. We enjoyed their friendship, and we will miss them both.
