A Celebration of Betty’s life will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, April 2 from St. Mark Roman Catholic Church – 589 – 9 Street East by Father Clifford Tremblay. This is especially significant, given her devotion and passionate involvement with the Parish, that mom and dad helped build over 60 years ago.
