I was sorry to hear of Betty's sudden death.
I saw Betty a couple of years ago at a schhol reunion and we caught up on our HVHS years. I loved Betty very much and we were close friends. I attended Betty and David's wedding which was amazing.
My condolences to all the family, and especially Robyn who met up with my son Paul in Europe travelling together.
Betty always had a smile and was a beautiful person may she rest in peace.

Dear David and family
Allan and I were very sorry to hear of Betty's death. And sorry also that we found out too late to attend her funeral service.
I always welcomed the times I bumped into Betty in Masterton and we would have a quick catch up about family and their doings.
David, you and Allan haven't seen each other for awhile but old friendships are still valued highly.
Please accept our sincere sympathies for your loss.

Dear David, Darryl and Robyn,
I was really sad to hear of Betty's passing and wanted to say how lovely a work colleague and friend she was.
I will never forget her fantastic smile, gardening and cooking advice that was shared at many a morning tea at Sadler Oakly Newman.
She hosted a baby shower for colleagues at her house for our first son Ollie and I will be eternally thankful for her kindness.
Thinking of you all at this sad time.

Dear David, Robyn, Darryl and family,
I was so shocked and sad when Angela phoned, to tell me Betty had passed away.
Such a lovely lady.......I still remember a beautiful meal Betty cooked, and invited David and I to share many years ago. A lovely evening.
You will all miss her so much, and my thoughts are with you all at this very sad time.
Lots of Love

To Mr Wong, Darryl and Robyn
I would just like to say how sorry we are for the loss of an awesome lady, wife and mother. One of my best memories was coming to your house for tea and I'd never eaten with chopsticks before I was very young and Mrs Wong said to me that's ok Sam I will cut them up for you so you can eat them with a fork. Mrs Wong was a lovely lady and Mrs Wong was one in a million, always smiling and willing to help out where she could. I will always thank her for being there for us kids.
Thank you Mrs Wong for being in my life you will be missed dearly xxx
My phone number is 021782768 it would be great to here from you Robyn, lots of love to you all love Sam and the Garlicks xxx

Dear David, Darryl, Robyn and fanilies,
We were so sorry to hear of the sudden passing of Betty. You are all very much in our thoughts at this difficult and very sad time.
We remember happy times with you all during the St Matthews College days. Betty was always cheerful and we enjoyed her company. Our many meetings with Betty, our extremely competent accountant, began with news of both our families. We looked forward to hearing all the news from her and she was always interested in ours.
Her loss as your beloved wife, mother and grandmother is a huge one. Our hearts and love are with you. Unfortunately we are not able to be with you at the farewell for Betty on Friday, but we will be specially thinking of you all.
With our deepest sympathy,
Robyn and Adrian Blackett

Dearest Uncle David, Darryl & Jackie, Robyn & Dave, Oscar, Taylor, Zara & young Jack,
So so sad to hear of your loss, my dear Aunty Betty. My thoughts and love are with you all at this difficult time.
Aunty Betty was always a diligent grafter, with such high standards and values, working tirelessly on several things at once. And always willing to listen and offer sound logical advice.
Many years ago I shared a story with Aunty Betty about something my mum said to me. I was about 11-12 years old and not the most conscientious child. Mum said she would send me off to spend a week with Aunty Betty because she is such a hard worker and Aunty Betty would sort me out in next to no time. Imagine my surprise when I came home the next day and mum told me that Aunty Betty was out the back picking zucchini's and I need to go out back so Aunty Betty can teach me how to be better. With trepidation I wandered out the back, and meekly squeak that mum said I was to help you. Aunty Betty merely laughed and said there was no need as she was nearly finished and she was enjoying helping my mum out. She then just made me feel so comfortable chatting away asking me questions about school, etc. Such was her character - her nature, always helping out, always busy, always ready to listen to what's happening in your life.
God has another Angel in his garden now.
Rest In Peace Aunty Betty.

To Dear Auntie Betty
You will always be fondly remembered as our caring, lovable aunt; always there to listen and offer that meaningful advice.
We loved our stays with you and Uncle Dave in Masterton - we always felt so guilty/spoilt; not letting us do anything and cooking those such wonderful meals.
We cherish the memories
Robert, Robyn, Jemma and Alisha

Dearest Uncle David, Robyn & family, Darryl & family,
Your family were my favourite aunties & uncles and I am so so sad that she has gone.
I am so pleased I got to see Auntie Betty & Uncle David at xmas time in wellington.
I wish I could be there with you on Friday, but know that I will be thinking of you all and sending you all lots of love.
It's truly a blessing that she passed away peacefully.
Mum is probably giving her "light" right now!
Please feel free to call if at any time you need someone to talk to or be there.
Much love Andrea x

Betty........we still can't believe you are no longer with us.
I will always have the fond memories of you as my younger sister,.. growing up into such a caring person but also always so level headed.
We are so pleased we were able to catch up and have a good old sisterly yarn when you were in Auckland last year.
You will forever be in our thoughts.
