A Tribute from Jackie (sister)

March 22nd, 2006 1:29pm

Betty was the fourth child of my parent's brood of eleven. Thin and spry as a child, she did what all little girls do-played, ran and pretended to be an adult. Unfortunately, Betty was to take on this role at a very young age. With my mother's passing, Betty was charged with raising her younger siblings. At the age of 19, in the hectic times that were the mid seventies, Betty ran a household including feeding and nurturing seven rambunctious kids. Money scarce, Betty made sure there was food on the table as we all attended expensive Catholic schools. Not always easy, Betty's strength persevered. As Time went on, Betty grew into a beautiful young women. She met Jim and it was her time to shine. From that love came three beautiful creations: Allison, Lisa and T.J. She mothered them as she had her siblings before. She was rewarded with GREAT and responsible kids. Last year she was blessed with two grandchildren, Madeliene Elizabeth and Jeremy James. Now, in her children her legacy lives on. Now this leg of your journey is complete. Heaven is your true reward. Those who have gone before you await you. They along with all who learned from and loved you, stand in pride and love. May God's love give you serenity and peace. May contentment be yours. And until we are together again, may your heart rest in the gentle hands of God. Written by Micheal, we all loved you so much.
