She was preceded in death by her parents, Louise and Elmer Fritsch. Betty was a devoted member of the St. Sylvester’s Parish in Brentwood and a long-time member of the Parish’s Women’s Guild.

    Norm(Sr), Norm(Jr), John, Paul, Tom and Karen – and all your families, What I recall most about Betty was her taking care of everyone, how her main interests were in your lives. Betty was loved by all of you, and so much a deep part of all your lives. Her passing will leave a large void, and all of you can help to fill that void for one another. Her example to you shows the way and your support of one another, just by a phone call, email or text to say hi, would be a testament to her commitment to her family. I am so sorry I could not be there, but I look forward to the time again when we can be in person. Love, Uncle Ned
