Condolences to the Pendyck Family
Dear Children: I am so very sorry to hear of your loss.
There are so many great things I can say about your Mom (Miss Betty Boop, as I would sometimes call her). She truly loved each one of you.
We worked together at the VA for quite sometime. Betty and I became very close not only as co-workers, but as friends. We laughed together; cried together and shared stories of our life experiences. A great co-worker! We kept in touch after she retired as I would visit a few times over the years; and, of course, they (especially Ray), always wanted me to stay longer.
Betty had what it took to make us laugh especially on a bad day on the job. What a sense of humor!!! And, a walk, like no other, in those spiked high heel shoes! A friendly outgoing person who loved life, her children and her husband,"Raymond".
So to all of you, be comforted in knowing your Mom and Dad are now together and wanting you to go on with your lives remembering them as great parents; and, to share good memories with one another. In sympathy and love.

My prayers are with you
I first want to say to Jan, Kurt, Mark and the rest of the Pendyck family that I'm so sorry for your loss. Words can not begin to tell you how sad I am, because she was truly an amazing woman, that will always have a special place in my heart. Aunt Betty, as I knew her, Ray (Popeye) and their family, babysat me from when I was an infant till I was about 3 years old. There is no doubt that she loved me unconditionally, as I did her. I don't remember her ever raising her voice to me, she was always making jokes, and she always made me feel like I was part of her family. The countless memories that I have could go on and on. Although I don't remember the spiked heals, I do remember the large amount of jewelry that she had....oh my goodness, the bracelets!!!! I used to love going up to her room and trying them on. At times, I have no clue how I didn't drive her crazy. I used to love taking all of the tupaware out of the cabinets and bang on them. These are some of the memories I cherish. Sadly though, with me living in Florida and starting a life of my own, I'm ashamed to say that I wasn't able to see or speak to her in the past couple of years, resulting in us losing contact with each other. Unfortunately I will have to deal with this and honestly, I would give anything just to tell her that I love her one last time. I know this is selfish of me because I know she is in a better place in Heaven with Popeye and Nan (I think I can hear them partying up there already). As one of my friends put it to me though, "Keep memories of her close to your heart and her spirit will always live." I plan on doing this. So with that, I'm deeply sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family...xoxoxo Becky Hanna
