My sympathies to you Patrick & family on the loss of your Mother. Betty was a great friend of my parents, and I remember the laughs shared in her Eltham home, and ours. Her long commitment to the Library in Eltham meant so many knew her and her kindness in the way she dealt with all. Memories of Richard and Patrick also at this time. May they all Rest in Peace.
Our condolences to you Patrick and all your family. Thinking of your Mother brings back so many good memories of Eltham. From the Smith Family

Dear Betty You were such an influence in all our lives. From being our mother's best friend to looking after us all like your own when she passed away at such an early age. We always knew we could count on you for anything and at any time and had many happy times with Richard, Patrick & Alistair growing up. Our formative years would not have been the same without you and you will remain in our hearts forever. May you rest in peace Betty and be re-united with 'Uncle Dick' and Richard and Alistair. Lots of Love always Christine
