Betty Pecko

Today is a very sad day for me.  At church this morning, I learned of a dear member, Betty Pecko, having a massive stroke and heart attack.  They say she won't make it much longer.  Her family brought her home from the hospital so she could be in her own home with family members close by.

Betty was always a cheerful person.  I had never seen her have a bad day.  Her husband, Harry, was a Deacon at our church, St. Augustines, in Union.

I had stopped going to church for a while but just recently started going back.  I would always see Harry at church but never Betty.  I'd ask Harry about her and he would say she was doing okay.  It was a great shock to go to church today and hear such sad news.

My thoughts and prayers go out for the Pecko family in this time of suffering.  I thank them for sharing Betty with me.  She is Loved and cherished and will be remembered for her smile and caring nature.  May God be with this family and give them strength as they go through this difficult time.
