Don, Steve, Karen and Deb,
So sorry to hear of the passing of Bette. I have so many fond memories of the fun times our families spent together on Christmas Eve's, golfing at the Blenheim golf course, travelling to Steve's hockey games, etc, etc...
Unfortunately, it looks like I will be unable to get to Blenheim on Friday to attend the Memorial. Please know that although we will not physically be there, we are certainly thinking of you at this difficult time.
Sincerest heartfelt condolences.

On behalf of the bowling alley and all that ever had the pleasure to watch and play with Bette, she will be definitely missed. She was truly a great bowler and when she bowled you barely heard the ball on the lanes until it struck the pins...such a smooth delivery and maintained a darned good average. It was my pleasure to know Bette and offer my sincerest condolences to her family.

To all Mrs Ladd's family,
I am so sorry to hear of her passing.
I met Bette back in 1992, most of the time I spent with her was at the arena watching her grandson and my son play hockey. She always greeted me with a big high and a very welcoming smile. She was a great lady and will be remembered fondly by many.
