Betty Mac was a community treasure. I remember her laugh, her energy and any food that I put in my mouth that she prepared. John, Rusty, Mike and Jane, you were truly lucky to have had parents and a sister as long as you did. Thanks for sharing them both with us all.
My favorite Aunt, you always knew where you stood with her and she has been a big influence in my life from childhood till now. I love this woman and I know she is happy now to be back with Uncle Bob and I bet she is up there catching up with my Mom and Dad too. Dance with the Angels sweet lady. You will be missed!!
Mike, Rusty, John, sister Jane, grandchildren, and great grandchildren:
Even though we have lived quite a distance away, we have tried to maintain contact with "MAC" through the years. She was our family contact for years and we appreciate that.
She was the one who kept the family (the Collins family) together even through tough times. She and Uncle James helped my mother through her final years at the Dickson Farm. She and Bob loved all of you and would have done anything to help you through the good times and the bad times.
We will not be at the memorial service on Sunday but will have you in our thoughts and prayers. God bless all of us who remember "MAC" as she enters heaven to join Bob.
Billy and Jennie Dickson
My deepest sympathies to Mrs. Howie's family and friends.
