For Betty's sake let me correct my previous posting. What she gave out was a "Anti-Depression kit" which had the following words and contained the items mentioned: An ERASER to make all those little mistakes disappear. A PENNY so you will never be completely broke. A MARBLE for those days when you're sure you've lost all of yours. An ELASTIC to help you stretch beyond your current limits. A STRING to hold it all together when it seems to be falling apart. And a HUG & KISS to remind you someone cares for you! That was the Betty Lautenbach that I remember. Thank you, and God bless you Betty.

It is with sadness that I read of Betty's passing. At Weetabix there was never a dull moment when Betty was around and I still have the 'Survival Kit' that she used to hand out. Always positive and supportive. R.I.P. Betty.

So sorry to hear of Betty’s passing. Our deepest sympathies to her family and friends at this time of grief. Paul and Evelyn Callahan

Although I have not spoken to most of my Canadian relatives for awhile I always thought that we would get together again. Betty and Sid were always the ones who put us up when we were younger. I played with Cheryl, Fred, Sid Jr., Geraldine, and Wendy, when we visited years ago and went picking strawberries. Betty always treated us well and she made the best strawberry jam I’d ever tasted. Time has blown by and my last trip was the year my father died in 1993, 30 years pass so quickly. I’ve wanted to visit everyone during this time but have never been able due to work, or financial issues. I will always miss Betty and all their children. I’d still like to make another visit soon but now that I have the time, It’s financial issues that put on the kibash. I’m sorry for the loss of my cousin Betty and throughout her life we always said she was my aunt. Much love and condolences for all the Lautenbach’s, Harts, Blacks, and Kemp’s. Rest now in the arms of Christ , you will never be forgotten.

My heart is breaking for Aunt Betty's family..it's been a long time since I saw Aunt Betty in person..but I was very fortunate that we kept in touch through Facebook/messenger...and she always finished her message to me with I LOVE YOU ❤️

Sherry, Fred, Gerri & Sid So sorry for the loss of your Mom. I will miss her at Legion Village, and her time I got to get to know her. So very sorry Hugs Penny

Sending prayers and hugs to my friend Gerri and her family. ♥️🙏

Sherry, Fred, Gerri, Sid...and the whole of your families, we all wish we could be there today to share in the love for and celebration of your Mom and her love for all of you. All of us share wonderful memories of all of you, your Dad, Wendy, coffee after church, New Year card games, fishing and camping trips. Our Moms were still in touch, laughing when they talked after all these years.

Condolences. Aunt Betty will be remembered as someone who was always happy with hugs for everyone. She will be missed.

To all the Lautenbach Clan: Your Mom was a beautiful lady in every way! I "love" the photo. It captures her very essence. Going way back in time, when you were students at Burnham Public School and I was a teacher there, she was one of my favorite "moms". My condolences to you all. My thoughts and prayers are you. What wonderful memories you all have to share!

I loved Betty. She always gave me mints in church. Even if I didn't sit beside her, she would find a way to sneak it into my hand, usually before she went to her seat. She gave Andrew her cook book because she knew he liked cooking, but sadly we've moved 3 times since then and I can't find it but I will remember her. She felt like family even if we weren't related.

To Gerri and Family, Betty always made sure we had enough of everything when visiting with her family be it food, drink or a listening ear but most of all love and laughter. But it's the devilish twinkle in her eyes that made us wonder "what's next". Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family. Love, Janice and Gary xoxo

Fred - I'm sorry for your loss. Condolences to your family.

Fred and Gerri sorry for the pain of your loss. She was a great person. Cherish your memories.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Your mom was an awesome person. Always cheerful and friendly even after all these years if I ran into her. I viewed her as my second mom sometimes wishing I had a mom like her. I spent a lot of time in your home and she was always so welcoming and friendly but you towed the line. She was a wonderful cheerful soul. This planet definitely lost an angel.

Fred-We're so sorry that you have lost your precious Mom. May you and your family find comfort in the beautiful memories that you share. And know that you will see her again in a higher place.

Syd, I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was always so nice to me.

To all the Lautenbach family. What a beautiful lady Betty was!! Her smile, her kindness, her infectious laugh, her culinary talents, the way she opened their home to friends..she will never be forgotten and live in the hearts of her loved ones forever. Ray got to know Betty from Weetabix days. A beautiful friendship arose and we enjoyed many wonderful social gatherings at Sid & Betty's Baltimore home. We cherish those memories. We send our deepest and sincere sympathy to the children, grandchildren and other family members at this very difficult time. Blessings to you all.

To the entire Lautenbach Family, Betty's loss is significant. Whether it was working with her on the line at Weetabix starting in 1980, or their house in Baltimore with Sid, or a quick visit while at her last house on Frei Street (thank you Gerri and Ed!), Betty showed me comical patience and always a huge SMILE. Christmas parties at her house in Baltimore way back and a fresh gift of baked cookies certainly enhanced my appreciation for this wonderful lady. She will be missed but always loved. RIP Betty! I am in Nova Scotia at moment and sadly cannot make her funeral but please accept my sincere thoughts and condolences.... Terry

I remember Betty as a wonderful lady and very patient as she trained me on the biscuit line and that was not easy for her. I smile when I think about all memories. Oh those cakes and cookies! RIP Betty.......

Big hugs to everyone! Keep her memories alive in your stories, and of course chocolate chip cookies.

Sherry, I’m so sorry for your loss of your Mom. Hang in there. Loosing a Mom is so hard because no one else looks at you the same way as Mom’s do! Big hug.

Sherry, so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Beautiful picture of her! May you hold your beautiful memories of such a loving/caring Mom in your heart to help heal. Prayers to you and your entire family.

Our condolences to all Betty's family. A camper/cottager friend for a half-centurys at Pitts Landing. We will miss her friendly smile as well as the dozens of chocolate chip cookies that she brought to the lake. A donation is being made to Northumberland Hills Hospital in Betty's memory. Rest in peace good and faithful servant.

Sending my condolences for the loss of Betty..We were on the same shift at Weetabix until she retired..She always had a positive attitude at work..She always organized the occasional smorgasbords at work,which she loved to do..RIP Betty

My heart is aching at the loss of Betty and for the Lautenbach family. My deepest condolences to everyone. May your rest in Paradise Betty.

I've never quite left a message like this, so I do apologize if it is rather odd sounding... But I want to say to all of the family: Betty, or Beppe as I knew her, was an absolute angel of a person. I only had the fortune to meet her a select few times, but she had a place in my heart from the get-go. Chantel (her granddaughter and at the time wife) spoke volumes of how loving and great her Beppe was and I got to see that in person. The first thing she did when we met together for a BBQ was teach me how to husk corn, something I'd never done. Her playful, sassy attitude and the loving energy she had is something I'll very fondly remember. She is an example for everyone to follow on how to be a good human being. To the family, I am so, so sorry for your loss. There is nothing to fill the hole she'll leave behind, but please know that she'll always be part of you. ♥ Ken

Bonnie and I wish you our deepesr codolences. May you find peace in the many memories you share.

I am so sorry for your loss. To the entire Lautenbach family (siblings), you know how close Wendy and I were, back in the day. I came to love Betty, almost like a surrogate mom. She was a dear, sweet woman. May she rest in peace.

Sending our condolences to the family at this difficult time. Joe Ferguson and Cindy Greer

Geri, Ed and the Lautenbach family. Sorry for your loss. Your mom certainly made an amazing chocolate cake and chocolate chips cookies. Never a visit without them. Doug and Kim

Sincerest condolences to the Lautenbach Family...May you feel the warmth and support from friends and family.
