Sending prayers and my deepest condolences to the Robinson family. I met Betty through my sister who was married to Randy Robinson her son who passed before her. We never know when our last day is up on this earth but Jesus gives us hope for a second time at life the Bible speaks of judgment day when there will be a resurrection of the good and the bad we just have to continue our faith in Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:21
I had the honor of working with Ms Betty at the furniture market several years back. She was a beautiful person inside and out and brought a smile to everyone's face. Ms Betty would tell us stories of riding her motorcycle along with her late husband and brought a ceramic statue her daughter had made of her on her motorcycle.Ms Betty made coming to work extra special, no matter what the weather was outside...there was always sunshine around Ms.Betty. Heaven has a sweet and beautiful new angel. Rest In Peace Ms. Betty, you will be missed by many. Beth Fowler

I hadn't met Aunt Betty Lou until I was an Adult but immediately fell in love with that Jordan quick wit and humorous sarcasm. Sat between her and mommy (Fluddie) one day going to Aunt Mazell's house, laughed all the way there and all the way back. Used to call her and she would always say" I know who this is sounding like my sister". Love you Auntie and tell the rest of them hello for me😍😍😍😇😇😇
Aunt Betty lou.. although we only met years ago for the first and last time I had to agree with my mother (fluttie) that you were a funny loving and graceful woman. My condolences to your children and everyone that will miss you dearly. It was truly my honor to have you as an aunt. Please sleep in peace in the arms of your parents and siblings and everyone who greets you in heaven.. sleep in peace.. until we meet again..love and blessings..amen...
To the Robinson Family, My heart breaks at the loss of our dear Aunt Betty Lou. It was always a joy to see her and to watch her light up, especially when there were flowers around. Just remember, death ends a life. It does not end a relationship. You will feel her presence, see things, hear things that will remind you of how grateful and bless we were to have her in our lives. Her legacy is a great one. We would all do well to live life with grace, honor, love and courage. I am here for you in any way that I am needed. I loved Aunt Betty Lou. I love all of you. God Bless this great family. Willie Odell Jordan

Betty Lou was a strong minded, warm and loving, mother, grandmother and sister-in-law. She tirelessly provided me with info on the family for genealogy research, as much as she could, for as long as she could and for that I will always be grateful. To my neice and nephew, Betty and Harold, great nephew, Andre and the rest of the family, find comfort in knowing that your mother, grandmother was ready. She is at peace. I love all of you and will continue to pray that God will provide you comfort. Love, Aunt Sue
"Bett" was not only my brother's wife, she was my friend — more of a big sister than an in-law. I loved her and will miss her dearly. I'd known her for more than 69 years. She was a tough cookie who had great faith in God. What a blessing to die peacefully in your sleep. She is resting in Jesus' arms. Family, remember the things "Bett" taught you by the way she lived her life and helped you. Love forever, Aunt Jean Johnson
My dearest Mother-In-Law my heart is so heavy right now, I know you are resting now at peace. Your grandbabies Isaiah and Brandy will truly miss you. I am so thankful you called and we talked not knowing that would be the last time we talk. Sending my condolences and love to Harold Robinson and Betty Jean Green. 🙏🏿❤️🙏🏿❤️
