The ornament, numbered #4,854 of the 5,000 limited edition, will be offered through a sealed-bid auction with a minimum bid of $100....

On December 20, 2013, Betty passed away following an unexpected diagnosis of terminal cancer just two weeks ago. Her husband, Jim, also diagnosed recently with a terminal illness, passed away only hours before. Betty so cherished her many loyal customers... she looked forward each year to hearing from you, and knowing that so many appreciated her artwork. She loved this city and showing off its many treasures. After 25 terrific years, it seems only fitting that this year's ornament celebrated the "wonderful life" that she shared with Jim, her family, and all of us. Thank you for playing a part...
