My sincere condolences on the passing of Betty. I worked with her for many years at AAA. Betty was ALWAYS in a great mood and always had nice things to say. No matter what we were
Going through in a day or how crazy it was she could always put a smile on my face. She was a lovely, lovely woman who will be remembered fondly. Betty had a zest for life and loved her family dearly who she often spoke of. May she rest in peaceful heaven.
So many memories! We have laughed till we cried. We shed some hard tears as well. We will hold dear many of Betty’s gentle ways. She would say, “I’ll think about it” which meant, NO, absolutely not. Yet, she was totally loyal to the family and would zealously defend them. She was generous with her love, compassion and kindness. She made us better people and the world was a better place because of her. We will love and miss her always. So glad she was in our lives.
So sorry to hear about your loss. Sending my deepest condolences to everyone.

My heartfelt condolences to her family.
Rest in peace, Betty.

I met Betty Ann when we both entered kindergarten in Mt. Carmel and we became close friends, as did our parents. Many wonderful childhood memories. Condolences to her family. I wish that I could attend the funeral but am now living in upstate, New York.
I still make “ Betty’s” potato casserole and her strawberry pretzel dessert on regular occasions and think of her in memory .
I am so sorry for the loss your family endures now , but I hope you are resting in peace .
Thank you again for all of your love and memories as a kid ! Love always , Melissa Cerilli
Dear Liz and Tim,
Your Mom and I were friends from kindergarten at Mt. Carmel School through high school at Hamden High. Our birthdays were two days apart and we all went to the Mt. Carmel Congregational Church. Such wonderful memories. We will miss her tremendously, especially her wonderful smile and her caring personality.

Liz and Tim, I am very sorry for your loss. Your mom was a wonderful person I have a lot of enjoyable memories from the days when I was caring for her. May you have comfort and peace in the days to come.
Betty Ann and I were close friends through most of grade school and through us our parents became good friends. As adults we drifted apart but reconnected about ten years ago through phone calls. Unfortunately, distance separated us and we never saw one another again. She was a wonderful friend and as children she frequently visited our house in Mt. Carmel and later in New Haven where we had moved and I visited her house at 20 Vincent Street in Hamden many times.
person. So nice to everyone and truly a loving person. I enjoyed her lemon squares she would bring in at times and just a Happy Soul. Rest in Peace Betty. The Heavens has gained another Angel.
