Rest In Peace, Betty Weber (Formerly Betty Sharpe)
This happened back in August but I just found out about it last night and it hit me like a punch in the gut. I was friends with Betty on Facebook, and I started wondering why I hadn't seen a post from her in a while. I noticed that I was no longer listed in my Facebook friends so I searched her name and came across this devastating news.

Some of you may have already known about this but the news was slow to reach me since I removed myself from all metal detecting groups on Facebook long ago. Betty was also a member of this forum but she rarely posted. Here is her introductory thread:
Newbie to American Detectorist
She was a very enthusiastic detectorist and was really good at it. She also seemed like such a positive person who was full of life. I debated creating this thread but decided to do it in remembrance of Betty. She was a special advocate for our hobby.
