Bette is selective with the liking of contemporary pop tunes and Bette is saying, rightly so, that a pop song has to pass muster with regard to her love of Doo-wop and Motown.

Bette had a crush on Adam Levine and loved “The Voice”

For the record I will write in the past tense and only because Bette would not want me to confuse any readers.

I have read that the departed are engaged in many spiritual activities, for the lack of a better word, and the loved ones left behind looking for signs may not witness any, soon after their passing. Don’t despair, you are on their ‘to do’ list.

But I will have Bette know and she agrees that my present and future are alive with her and when I take my last breath my earthly past will meet up with her spiritual past and we will have a lot to talk about.

It is June 6 2015 Bette passed away two weeks ago and the missing is profound.

Bette passed into the spirit world on May 23 2015 at 1:05 am. I was with her when she breathed her last on earth. She had been unconscious for the past day. Her sister Connie and her husband Zen came into the hospice room a couple hours earlier.

My name is John and I am  writer. The desire to write about Bette and her loving and kind nature is compelling though I will admit to it being a tearful labor of love.

She was my editor and I could always rely on her to correct grammar and spelling. She loved my writing but thought I could be less dark and looked forward to my writing a humorous piece.  I had every intention of complying but her ‘Life Contract’ dictated otherwise.
