I'm sorry we didn't find out about this until it was too late to notify the District 48 retirees of the visitation. Betty was a great person to work with -- always a lot of fun in the office. Linda (Bein) Carpenter

Diane and Cheryl,
My condolences to both of you and your families.
The old neighborhood has lost many of the original families that came to live in Elmhurst in the 50's and 60's. Betty and Norm are back together again. Terrie Provenzano (Boyle)
