Aunty Betty was so much part of our family (Reimers), Valda and Betty were like sisters. The two couples Betty, Howard, Dick and Valda becoming friends for life in Alta Lake in the mid 1950’s, sharing many years playing cards, square dancing, curling, travelling, celebrating birthdays and weddings together, and living in each other’s back yards. Aunty Betty taught us all the love of music, she became a toast master long before joining the group, she gave the toast to the bride at my wedding in 1981. To Larry, Lee, Leonard and Allison she has left us all with so many special memories that we will all cherish, we will miss her, but thankful that we have those memories
