“My name is Sally Rhymes and Betty Jean is my beloved aunt. Every time I would visit Decatur, I always visited my Aunt Betty Jean. if we could all live our lives like my Aunt Betty Jean. She is beautiful, kind, outgoing and one of the best dressed women that I know. I am going to miss her so but she lived her life to the fullest. She love to dance and sing and she could do both well. God I thank you for my Aunt Betty Jean your beloved child that you called home.”
