I had Mrs. Hansen as my 7th grade English teacher at Grand Valley Junior High school in the early 1970s. She and My Mother were also friends, at the Windsor Methodist church, where My Mother taught Sunday School in the 1960s. My sincere condolences to the Hansen family
To Betty’s family,
For 15 years, I was a member of Delta Kappa Gamma with Betty. She was one of my favorites in the group. When I left the group about 10 years ago, I lost track of Betty.
I have such fond memories of her kind personality.and clever wit. She was a wonderful person and I am glad I had the chance to know her.
My deepest sympathy. A very classy lady!! – Bonnie Bernato
