-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We  first met Betty when Line Dancing came to Blairstown. What fun she was there! Then when Bill had the accident we would check on both of them often and offer help. We will remember her for always calling both of us JayJerry – she (like others) was not able to remember whether the female was Jay or the male was Jay – with JayJerry she covered all of the bases.  JayJerry was later to become our e-mail address.  She would often come to Blairstown after they moved to PA and come to Blue Ridge Lumber asking for “JayJerry” which always made us smile.  Betty was a delightful lady and a strong person.  Know that both my husband, Jerry & I, Jay have a deep respect and fondness for her.  May God Bless You and give you strength at this time and always. Jay & Jerry Labar aka JayJerry 9 Jones Rd; Blairstown, NJ 07825
