To all the MacWhirter family,
Your mother was a mom to a lot of people. It seemed the more people she had in her home, the happier she was. I spent a lot of time at their home growing up and I will forever remember her kindness, her goodness and her respect for others.
May you rest now Mrs MacWhirter. You’ve certainly earned it.

I have so many fond memories of Betty from church. They go way back to when I was a teenager and going to choir practice at Cascapedia church. She was a wonderful woman and always very nice to all of us.
