Jim,
Steve & I would like to take this time to tell you how truly sadden our hearts are tonight. We love Betsy so dearly. She was one remarkable lady. It will not be the same without her. Even though she is not here physically, she will always be a part of our lives. We have very fond memories of you & her especially playing Scrabble with the both of you at OES's Game Night. Please know that there will always be a very special place in our hearts for the ‘Cooks.’ I just wish I could find the words that could erase the ache in the hearts of you & your family but unfortunately I have not been given such powers. I can tell you that God has promised us that he will never leave or forsake us & with that promise I rest assure & your family are in his arms at this time.

Keeping you in our never ceasing prayers,
Steve & Charlotte Hodges
