Met Betty (as she was fondly called) in 1966 in Ottawa. She was introduced to Valerie and Gregory, adding to her large number of nieces and nephews. Spent many happy days with Gerry (her deceased husband) on Vancouver Island, the Mainland and eventually Argyle and Winnipeg. She was a high energy person, loved to travel, entertain and mostly visit with her immediate and extended family. She will be sorely missed by everyone who knew her. Will miss you always but you will always be in our memories. Brother Ralph, Joan, Valerie, Gregory, Shawn and Sage - Posted by: Ralph Andrew Siska & Joan J.
