    I'm so thankful that I was blessed with a dear friend like Betty. I considered her more than a friend more like family. When I lived at Lake Texoma we shared many memories. Betty taught me so many things especially about cooking, how to make things, what to clean with... the list is endless. One of my favorite times was at the Surratt Reunions. I couldn't wait to see what she made for the auction. She never missed one and they were so important to her. Family was her diamonds...She was a strong and compassionate person. You always knew where stood with her. She and I both shared a love for "Roosters" and when I'd find one I knew she'd like I'd surprise with it & she'd smile that smile! She was so genuine ! She was the first to volunteer to help, she was the last to leave you until all was done. She loved to dressed up, enjoyed her friends. She saved almost every thing she ever got. She still had her first set of Tupperware and it looks brand new!!! Heaven gained a Feisty , Spunky Beautiful Angel for sure, I know she's up in heaven with those she's missed. Laughing and playing games. I will cherish memories we made. I loved her. 💓
