Betty Carlin

I Just had a call from Susan, The daughter of Betty Carlin, Betty has had a stroke last week and a heart attack yesterday. Her doctors have only given her 2 weeks. Betty was historian at the International Motorsports Hall Of Fame in Talladega for many years, Knew more about racing than any person I have know, Worked with her for about 10 years and a great lady, Need prayers for Betty and family. She has been living back in Randleman NC with her daughter Susan since her retirement.

so sorry to hear this about your friend. My thoughts and prayers go out to her and her family and friends.

Billy Biscoe had also blogged about Betty earlier this morning:
