Betty's life story is one of enduring love. She and her late husband, "Lee," shared a lifelong bond that started on roller skates. Their love story bloomed in Newark, NJ, where they crafted a life together filled with adventure, partnership, and creativity. Lee's talent as a professional photographer beautifully captured the essence of people's lives, often focusing on the elegance of portraits and the joy of weddings.
For decades, Betty thrived in her own home, just a stone's throw away from her daughter. She reveled in her independence, taking charge of her daily life while her daughter offered occasional help and companionship.
However, life has a way of surprising us when we least expect it. A setback that led to a hospital stay prompted Betty and her family to consider alternative living arrangements. Suddenly faced with the prospect of leaving her cherished home, Betty embarked on a journey to find a place that could provide the right level of care, community, and comfort she deserved. With determination and a limited budget, Betty's family reached out to Senior Care Authority for support and guidance and Betty found a new home that felt like an extension of her own family.
At 98, We asked her what wisdom she would impart to those seeking a life filled with happiness and meaning. Her words were simple yet profound: "Get Along" and "Be a Good Person." With a smile that radiates positivity, Betty's charisma and wisdom continue to inspire everyone she meets. Take Betty’s wisdom into September and see if it doesn’t make your life better!
