I just wanted to share a sweet memory of Betty & Blair, early in their marriage, as they traveled by ship to their army assignment in Okinawa. My parents and I, a young teenager, shared a table in the dining salon with the Buckleys. It was a 22-day voyage, and we all developed a strong friendship during the long journey. Though I was only 13, Betty & Blair were much closer to my age than they were to my parents’ generation. They respected me and were interested in me, and I never forgot their kindness, friendship, and encouragement. We visited in their home several times over the next two years and shared a Thanksgiving dinner with them. It was my honor to have known Betty & Blair.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. It has been many years since the Buckley Family lived in Clarendon. I was in Blair's class (1973). I also knew their grandparents, The Whitakers. I just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. I will love you and miss you always.I am so grateful to her for her inspiration and support in my hobby. I have always felt close to her because we not only had a common interest in quilting but also for dogs, coffee and (then) smoking cigarettes.
