Dear Musgrave family. You all have been our adopted family and we share deeply in your lost.
We fine relief in the fact that Betty is no longer in pain and that she and Bob are together again.
Love Nita and George Macleod
I knew Betty (and Bob) at Barnwell High School in the 1950’s. While serving in the military in the early 1960’s, it happened that we were stationed in Spain with them, and became reacquainted and good friends again. It has been 50 years since I have seen the Musgraves. But I know this… Betty was the same person 50 years ago as I am sure she was today – strong, loving, caring, soft-spoken and in love with her family. What a pleasure it was to know her!
