If you go to the Funeral Home site you can find a picture of Betty there and the name of a surviving sister  to including in your condolences.  There is a bit of additional information also.  I will attempt a cultural send of from Clovis CA even though I am about as far away from home country as can be.  This morning I was approached by a hawk which reminds me that HP always attends my cares.  (((((Betty K)))))

Thank you, Jerry.

I love that the picture is of Betty at the Opera. She is standing by a lobby poster of Tristan and Isolde. So beautiful--I know she loved it.

Tom: they just have her picture and brief description of service...NO book as yet to sign condolences....I just looked and Temple is spot on....click on death notices at the top....I'm hoping they will provide a "book" for us long distancers to sign and give our love to Betty..Let her family know she has LOTS of folks who love her

I think we have left lots of condolences here. Betty told me she went to a lot of meetings in New York. Remember how Betty was always talking about the need for face to face. She went to a lot of meetings. I have no doubt it is all over New York When my friend bv died unexpectedly I missed it. I did not get a chance to go to the funeral I had to look process it on my own. My therapist told me that I needed to find out exactly what happened. I didn't . Saying goodbye to someone like Betty takes time Give yourself that time Betty was #there# for a lot of people when they were down. For me she was extremely patient and kind So now be like Betty with yourself. Be kind be patient be loving be attentive. Be non judgmental be all the things she was for all of us I have no doubt the memorial was jammed to the rafters. I have no doubt there are flowers all over Betty's beautiful apartment. I also have no.doubt that her family know Betty was universally loved and respected Maresie
