What an honour it was to have known your Mother. Part of her will always be with me.

Betty and her friend Dilys greeted us with open hearts when we first moved to Seaforth in 2003. We found a lady who adopted lost sheep such as ourselves being new to town and who had a heart of gold. Quite simply she loved everyone and accepted them regardless of any baggage they may have carried. She was a dear friend who will be missed. Our heartfelt sympathies to her loved ones and we wish her God speed.

The Breakfasy Bunch
We were saddened to learn of Betty&&single&&s passing but at the same time happy for her in knowing that she is now with the Lord. Betty was a founding member of “The Breakfast Bunch” which is a group that meets almost daily at Terry&&single&&s in Seaforth, to have a social breakfast. That group has grown from the original few to an alumni of many who drop in regularly or irregularly as circumstances allow. Though we only saw Betty on an occasional basis since she moved to Lions Head, she was always welcomed with love and affection. Though the group as a whole isn&&single&&t a religious group, we will miss her simple faith in Jesus and her willingness to think good of other people. She always made an effort to understand even though she may have disagreed.
Our sympathies to her family both immediate and extended who we know will have many happy memories of their association with her.

To all the MacLean family: My deepest sympathies for the passing of your mother, now gone to the arms of her Lord and Saviour. I know that the three wisest women, Aunt Betty, Auntie Kate and Marian are busy chatting it up, on a cloud on high, keeping a close watch on us all.

I knew Betty in the last few years enjoying a good game of bid euchre with her as both her and I were very daring bidders. She had become a good friend from the Friendship Club activities. Bonnie Ashcroft
