Today I lost a very good friend. I have known her for over 30 years and she has been my mother in law for the last 30 years. She was a truly wonderful lady and I am really going to miss her. Most people say they hate their mother in laws but not me. Mine was great God bless you Betty. I love you and I am going to miss you.

ldybgsgma99 is my daughter. What she did not put in here is that her and Betty remained friends for all those years even though ldybgsgma lost her husband in a tragic accident 29 years ago. Randy was Betty's only child and he was adopted. He was killed in a motor cycle accident when his daughter, ldybgsma's child was only 13 months old. Betty was a dear sweet lady, worked very hard and at the same time put up with a husband who left a lot to be desired. He could be very crass, and mouthy when it wasn't needed. Betty is going to be sorely missed. God Bless you Betty - we all loved you dearly.

Hello ldybgsma!!! I'm really sorry to hear about the friend who has a great part in your heart. I know it's painful to loose someone very dear to us, but there is nothing that we can do to stop it from happening. Each of us have our own time, we just don't know when.. As much as possible we have to spend each day as if it's the last, because we'll never know, right? I'm not married yet so haven't got any inlaws. But i do have a boyfriend and planned to get married soon, and so far i am loving my inlaws. Wish things will never change the way it is now. Anyway, my heart goes out to you, and it's really sad to hear that, but at list her memory will last throughout your lifetime and the family she left... We'll all be seeing someday!lol God bless you friend.
