[Faith-talk] Betsy Zaborowski

[Linda Mentink]

Hi all,

I received this from Mark Riccobono, and thought I'd pass it on.

  Subject: Memories of Betsy from James Gashel

How do you say goodbye to someone you love as much as life itself?



This morning, November 29, at approximately 2:30 a.m. Mountain Time, 
Betsy Zaborowski left this life after a nine month battle with a rare 
form of cancer.  The Colorado sky was clear, and the moon was shining 
in the window near her bed.  God called Betsy as she went to live 
with the angels.  Her struggle on earth is over.



Betsy's final wish was granted on November 27 when she was flown by 
air ambulance from Baltimore, Maryland, to Denver, Colorado, where 
she lived in her new home for two days.  She picked the house on a 
trip to Denver in October.  Living in a new home, back in Colorado, 
was her goal, which she accomplished in true Betsy Zaborowski style.



Although Betsy will no longer be with us here on earth, the power of 
her spirit and the contributions of her life will last 
forever.  Funeral arrangements are pending at Saint Therese's 
Catholic Church in Aurora, Colorado.  Her family requests memorial 
contributions to be made to the National Federation of the Blind 
Imagination Fund.  Written memories of Betsy Zaborowski's life and 
work may be sent by mail, fax, or e-mail to the National Federation 
of the Blind in Baltimore, Maryland, at the addresses given below.
