Betty was my first caretaker and even though our time together was short we formed a close bond that I will never forget. She had a kind and generous heart. My heart goes out to her family. She will be missed greatly. I know she will be watching over us from her special place in heaven.
Betty was a wonderful woman who always put the needs of others first.Her guidance during my ownership of Maple Crest was invaluable. Her care giving skills eased the burden of many in Hornell. She will be missed.
We are so sorry- what a wonderful, kind and caring person. She helped care for my in-laws and very recently my mother and what a God send. She always had the right thing to say to comfort them and us, the care givers.
She will surely be missed.
