Aunt Betty was young-at-heart, fun person who experienced her share of tragedy. She was a talented seamstress and made her own and several other wedding gowns. She was a great ice and roller skater, and loved to travel.
Betty and her second husband, Larry, became cross-country truck drivers for a moving company. Betty, of course, learned to drive the Kenworth diesel, mastering all the forward and reverse gears. She and Larry died in Massachusetts while delivering a load. They overnighted in a truck stop and were asphyxiated during the night. It was a devastating blow to her entire family.
