Lynn & family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. We have fond memories of your mom. The video is such a beautiful tribute to her. May your loving memories bring you comfort during this difficult time.

As I worked with Tom for several years at Sheehy Funeral Home in the late 1960's, I also got to know Betty Lou as a dedicated wife and fine hostess to all who entered their home. As the years went on she became a mother and a student and graduate of Worsham College and then to start a funeral business that has endured to this day. Blessed be her memory.

Ohhh, so many memories throughout the decades...Betty Lou and Tom were close friends of my parents Don and Martha Ham, and were present in my life from early childhood. We all shared so many activities at St. Jude; New Years Eve Dinner/Dances, Port-o-Calls, too many to mention. They entrusted my beloved Dad to design their first Thornridge Funeral Home, and held his funeral there decades later. Now Betty Lou will be honored there...and the sands of time run on. Deepest condolences to her cherished family and her many devoted friends. I wish I could be there with you all to celebrate her extraordinary life and her passage to Eternity.
