I had the privilege of sharing Holy Communion with your Mom for the last 4 years. We always found things to talk about and decided if we had met sooner, we would have been close friends. We just seemed to relate to each other. Every time I saw her, even when she wasn?t feeling so great, we found some little something to laugh about. She taught me that ?growing old isn?t for sissies!? She would smile every time she said that to me and i have share her saying with many others that are in her situation and it?s brought a smile to others that hear it! I know she is at rest and at peace in the Arms of her Savior. She loved all of you so much and my prayers are with you as you mourn, celebrate and remember your wonderful mom!

To the Family of Betty Jane Call, I?m sorry for your loss of your beloved, May you find comfort in the God of all comfort, Jehovah, in his Word, the Bible, in Isaiah 57:15: For this is what the High and Lofty One says, Who lives forever and whose name is holy: ?I reside in the high and holy place, But also with those crushed and lowly in spirit, To revive the spirit of the lowly And to revive the heart of those being crushed. The only true God, has promised in his Word, in Isaiah 25:8: He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.... For Jehovah himself has spoken it. Psalms 83:18; Isaiah 43:13; Isaiah 46:10; Isaiah 55:11. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)

I, along with 2 other ladies from Christ the King Catholic Church, had the privilege of bringing the holy Eucharist to Betty every Tuesday and therefore getting to know her. She was a sweet and devout lady that was always so appreciative to be able to receive communion since she was no longer able to attend Mass. I will miss her sweet smile and beautiful eyes but most of all her kind spirit. May she enjoy her eternal reward with her Lord.
Pat, Sharon Longinotti and family
