| Betty passed away on Sept. 13, 2004 after a relatively short illness of 
      liver cancer.  I want to thank all of you, her customers, for the prayers, 
      cards, emails, phone calls that you have taken the time to make.  Betty 
      thought of you all not as customers but as friends and loved you all.  
      Betty and I talked many times about why we continued our travels and 
      business and there was only one reason.  You, we felt as though we 
      were blessed to be able to associate with some of  greatest people on 
      earth.  She enjoyed meeting you and sharing with you and talking to all of 
      you. Thank you,  |
