  3. It is with heavy hearts that we express our condolences to Betty\’s family. We were blessed to call Betty neighbor, friend and family. I miss the time spent between our two homes talking, laughing, crying and hugging. We always had the best time on shopping excursions. Betty and I shared an immense love for all things Christmas! We compared notes on who had what and shared our trees each year once decorated. We smiled when we happened to be at their house during a UK game and Betty had her blue and white on full display. We laughed as she would yell at \’her boys\’ on the tv at some missed opportunity. She loved her UK basketball! Betty\’s beautiful spirit is greatly missed. Thank you Betty for sharing your life with us and allowing us to consider you \’neighbor\’ family. We find peace in that you and Don are together again as you should be. Hugs and love from us. Yvonne and Steve Koehler (former neighbors)
