A million thank you's Betsy for beng my adoptive mom and welcoming me into your family in my early 20's. I got to redo my childhood by being reparented and watching the love, attention, and putting your kids first while being willing to do what it took to give them rhe best life possible. Witnessing you as a parent healed many parts of my childhood, made me wiser, and now all these years later I am a way better parent because of you and Jim.
I have many moments where I cant believe I wont see you again. You had such a kind and supportive energy to all who knew you. Pure heart and embodying the ultimate spiritual practice of kindness and presence.
I hope I got to give back enough to you over all these years, as you gave me so much! So greatful we had that last day together in San Diego. Knowing that was going to be almost for sure my last moment with you and with the whole family was super special and heartbreaking too. I think I cried most of the drive back to LA. My highlight of course was the incredible rainbow ring around the sun as we took our final photos together. Maybe the brightest ring around the sun I had ever seen. What a sign and omen for the moment. Saying goodbye to you deserved something so special in my inner mythology of what you meant to me.
I just cant thank you enough! Love you for as long as I live and cherish our time together. So sorry you wont be with your daughters and grand daughter going forward. I cry thinking that Juniper did not have enough time with you either. If you are still with us on some demension then I am sure you are their gardian and loving them up in the spirit world.
Rest in Peace Betsy! 💜🌈🙏🏻
