I know we don't keep in touch but I wanted to wish the family my condolences. You guys always treated me like family, as well as everyone else that came into the restaurant. Betty saw through to everyone's heart no matter how hard the exterior. She was a great cook and monopoly player! As well, as a great grandmother and mother. I wish you all the best and my heart goes out to you.

I'll always remember the summer evenings I spent at Mentones with her just sitting around having a drink and just having a wonderful conversation. I enjoyed those evenings so much! I'll always remember the evenings we went out to dinner or went to the dog track. They are wonderful memories I can hang on to. I had such a good time. She was always a joy to be with. I will always remember watching Betty and Dino dancing to Barry White's song, you're my first, my last and my everything. Every time I hear that song I always think of her. My memories with her will never die. Dino, Antonette,Don and Sherry, I am so sorry for your loss.
