Forever Missed - Cora Lynn Bettcher 1967 - 2018

I never had the privilege of being a close friend with Cora, but I nevertheless feel privileged to have had our paths cross. What a kind, gentle, caring soul she was. And what a lover of art! Many times I have had my day brightened with the awesome art images she shared. You can see them yourself at this link:

I was shocked to find out about Cora's untimely passing or even what illness she struggled with. However, I am told that she participated in animal rescues in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina where there was a horrific mix of toxins and mold. That would be like her . . . sigh. Here is what is posted at the memorial to Cora at Forever Missed (https://www.forevermissed.com/cora-lynn-bettcher/#about), where I encourage you to go and post a note of remembrance.
