To all:
THANK YOU for all your kind words, thoughts and prayers. As Frank noted, we decided that this was a celebration of Mom's life, and that was made easier by all the people who stopped in to visit, and by all the heartfelt postings, messages, and phone calls Big Art received. Most of the time it seemed that we were not really in a funeral home because of all of the NOISE; the sharing, story telling, and laughter going on! Of course we are all concerned about Big Art, but the support and love he received from family and his aeromodeling friends has proven to be a powerful support net.
On behalf of all of us THANK YOU ALL for remembering Betty, and THANK YOU ALL for being there for Big Art, and the rest of us too!
