Betty McCrory is out of Surgery

Betty underwent surgery earlier today to remove her pacemaker. The surgery went well, and she may even be able to return home this evening! Betty will have a new pacemaker put back in in a couple of weeks. Thank God for His loving care, and ask that he continue to be with Betty.
