Betty came into our lives when she became a nurse for my daughter, Christy. Betty quickly became a dear friend and confidant. I had no idea that Betty had passed away until I discovered it today. I am deeply sorry, and my heart goes out to her sweet and precious children and grandchildren whom Betty and Don loved with their whole beings. Betty couldn’t stop talking about her adorable great grandchildren, they were precious in Jesus’s sight and in her eyes as well. Just like all grandparents, her grandchildren could do no wrong.. Lisa I’m so, so, sorry I did not take the time to make a visit. That will be my cross to bear. Please forgive me. Your mother was a gift to the world, and to me, a person you could not forget. I don’t want to ever forget that sweet lady and her sweet smile.. Her personality was contagious with joy and laughter, and just being in her presence left you wanting more time. She and Don were given a surprise 50th Anniversary party by their children, and it was magical. I was given strict orders by everyone not to tell. I didn’t The party was a huge success, except everyone thought Don was going to have a heart attack when he walked into the room from the shock. But, he and Betty have no ailments, they have glorified bodies, I know that the two of them have been celebrating the joy of their reunion in heaven with Jesus and family members that had gone before them. Thank you, Betty Jean Turner, for allowing me to be apart of your life and to have the pleasure of golden nuggets along the way. You will be sorely missed. But, my days are drawing closer and so know we will meet again, sweet friend. Give my sweet Christy a big hug for me. Love forever and always, your friend, Judy Ricks
