What great times growing up we all had together. Even though she wasn't really my aunt she will always be Aunt Betty. That's what we always called her and always will. So many fond memories with Aunt Jenny and Uncle Paul and Uncle Frank and Aunt Betty that I will cherish forever. Love to you all, Patty (Althoetmar) Mitchell, Griffin Ga.
