Betty and Kev were fine people. We crossed paths from time to time after I left Portugal Cove. Always nice to see them. I always think of Betty at Christmas time when I hear the song I’ll Be Home With Bells On.
The first time I heard the song, she was listening to it when I dropped in to her place of work. Rest in Peace both of you.
