I have truly enjoyed the Mackey family over the years.It started with them being such wonderful neighbors to Elaine( a close friend of mine. Later it was knowing Betty and Jack as they broughr Margaret to the day program. They were a wonderful loving couple.Full of fun and laughter. And of course I loved the grandmother Margaret. Especially when we celebrated St Paddy’s day for a week straight. She loved music. One very special day, I will never forget was when Betty arranged for me to escort Margaret to Melissa’s wedding.. We had a great time .Betty had arranged everything including drivers and a rest period in between . The best moment was seeing Margaret dance with the bride before we left.Betty will be greatly missed.And beautiful lady , always caring and so appreciate. Top priority was always her Family. Needless to say you had a great mom and dad.
