I loved Betty, she was the nicest person and so sweet. She always gave me a big hug when we saw each other. I miss her already
The Davis family is one of the first families that I met when Gary came onto my life and I instantly gravitated towards “Grandma Betty” for the next 37 years. She was easy to adore and I wholeheartedly did. So thankful for our recent lunch together. May peace be with the Davis family now and in the days ahead. Sending much love to you all.
my sincerest sympathies to the entire Davis family. big air hugs to dozer .
I always sit in front of Betty and Betty at church on Saturday evenings. We sort of have our assigned pews. She was the sweetest lady. She always extended a special greeting and could always engage in conversation. I sure will miss seeing her there.
My condolences to the Davis family and especially Bob. When I was back for a class reunion and Betty came over to Bob’s garage, I had to admit that I had taken some pumpkins from the front of the Davis grocery store at about one o’clock in the morning during a silly stunt. I offered to pay Betty for the pumpkins after 55 years had passed. We both visited for some time and she forgave me . What an amazing person Betty was for all that had the privilege of knowing Betty. Rest in Paradise and hope you are sharing your love with DD.
She was a pretty cool lady. Always fun to be around. We will miss seeing her at our birthday celebrations for the kids.
Condolences to the family so very sorry for your loss.
So sorry to hear. The world is less brighter with out her.
The Davis and Kruse family has had close ties for 70 years. Richard, Larry and myself, all 3 of us worked for DD and Betty Ann in the grocery store Whenever I came home, and i would see Betty from afar, we walked towards each other, stood still, looked at each other and then hug each other. Fine lady she was. Betty Ann is now sheltered in the arms of GOD. Miss you Betty Ann Sharon J. Kruse Mesa, AZ.
My sincerest condolences go out to the Davis family. Betty was one of our neighborhood “Mom’s”. She was a sweet, kind lady. She is watching over you all, right beside your Dad, the two reunited in Heaven.
My mom and Betty always got their hair done at the “Beauty Shop” and enjoyed visiting with each other and use to tease each other with who was older-my mom was from February to Betty’s August birthday older. May they both rest in peace and enjoy each other’s company in heaven!
My condolence to the family sorry for your loss.
