Unfortunately, I have bad news for the Buckler family\/friends and our classmates.<\/p>\n<p>Our dear classmate, Betty (Buckler) Thompson, lost her battle with MS on December 22, about 9:00 a.m. Her loving husband and family were by her side. Tim, her husband, was holding her hand as she drew her last breath. Betty knew how much she was loved by him because as he was telling her of his love for her, she was able to gently squeeze his hand. What a way to go! Betty is being cremated and there will be a memorial service the first or second week of January. I will post the obit and details as they become available to me.<\/p>\n<p>Since Tim (Lasseter) Latta moved to Ft. Worth, she had been able to visit with Betty and Tim about every other week. Those visits were enjoyed by all.<\/p>\n<p>Please keep Betty\u2019s dear family in your prayers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Jeanne Harman<\/p>\n<p>Below are a few pictures with Betty that might bring back some memories.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" width=\"65%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2016 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler1-300x265.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler1-300x265.jpg 300w, https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler1.jpg 491w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n5th grade May Fete at Crestview Elementary-<br \/>\nBetty Buckler is first row, first on the left&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"s wp-image-2017 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler2-300x192.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler2-300x192.jpg 300w, https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler2.jpg 617w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n6th grade at Crestview elementary: October 1953<br \/>\nBetty is third from the left on the top row<br \/>\nOthers in the picture are: John Pearce, Anna Louise Logan, Margaret Baker, George Compton, Bob Willingham, Gaelyn Corbin<br \/>\nSharon McCarthy, Ralph Gray, Leon Meadows, Karon Shinault, Donna Grisham, Randy Turner, Mary Ann Wilson, Barbara Williams, Randy Farrar&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2018 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler3-300x173.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler3-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler3-768x442.jpg 768w, https:\/\/whs60.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Buckler3.jpg 971w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n5th grade at Crestview- Betty is at the blackboard on the left.<br \/>\nOther classmates pictured are Bob Willingham, Charlie Sligh, Mrs. McCarthy, Betty Luedeker, Poppy Early,<br \/>\nSharon McCarthy, Linda Shelby, Roy Marlow, Gaelyn Corbin, Robert Boatman, Ralph Gray, John Pearce, Barbara Williams, Mary Ann Wilson&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friends\u2026..Christmastime does not always bring jolly news to everyone.
