Gary Webb Evonne and I are in Hawaii and I was checking messages for my brother Ron who recently passed – to find Betty’s notice was an absolute shock, to say the least. We have such wonderful memories of her and Wally, especially from the Seniors camp at Nanoose. Our thoughts and prayers are with Terry and all of the family at this very sad time. Much love – Gary
