Well our Earthly loss is Heaven's gain. I have no doubt but that Betty was welcomed in to Heaven by God with a wide smile and outstretched arms, two outstanding characteristics of her kind and loving nature. Betty brought joy wherever she went. It was our great fortune to have met Betty, with her family when they would visit Catherine and Joe in MacKinnon Harbour. Many a laugh and good times were shared with Catherine becoming as childlike in the fun as the rest of us. Betty may you fly high with the angels as you enjoy your deserved and just reward for having lived your life filled with Faith and love. I am guessing you heard the words "Welcome home my good and faithful servant" as you were escorted to your "room" in Heaven. Rest peacefully.

You are in our hearts forever. Neil & Gale
This was written by Betty for our wedding 52 years ago.
Chorus
Home again, home to my own again
Home again, home to my own again.
I wondered far away in search of something new
Something to change my life and what I found was you
And now that I’ve found love
I need no longer roam
I can go home
Chorus
So many times I’ve wondered
What am I searching for
On every side of me
I found an open door
And then you came through one
And took me by the hand
Together we can - go
Chorus
And life’s worth living
With someone by my side
I find it’s worth it all
Yes, all the tears I’ve cried
To know that someone cares
Enough to take my hand
To understand
Chorus

Joy to all the sorrowful, this night, Remember Jesus came to fill
Our dismal world with light, Peace to all the troubled souls of men.
May Christmas come to, Touch your hearts again.
~ lyrics & music by Christena Elizabeth "Betty" (MacLean) Young
Thank you for the music, the love and the laughter.
~ Peter
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear the music ringing.
It sounds and echoes in my soul;
How can I keep from singing?
- Words & Music: Robert Lowry, 1860

"Deep in the heart of a place called Cape Breton
Deep in the heart of its legends and charm
There stands a house like many another
But it beckons to me with its welcoming arms
For inside its doors there are thousands of memories
Just waiting to hear the sound of my voice
And echoes of laughter they ring from the rafters
And rush to remind me of small childhood joys"
I am now left with very happy memories of growing up next in line to you and will take on the roll of Queen of the Blossoms till we meet again.
"Then after supper we'd gather together
And down on our knees we would pray one and all
And oldest to youngest give thanks to the Father
For each of His Blessings no matter how small."
Original song written by Betty
