Though Betty may no longer walk beside us, her legacy lives on — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of time and space.
She never once contracted COVID-19, which was miraculous given her age and even more so because of a late-in-life diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in 2021 at age 84.
