Virginia delTa ChapTer MeMber leads grandparenTs’ group “When Betty Ford tragically lost her daughter, she found herself helping to care for her grandson,” said fellow Virginia Delta Chapter member Sharon Austin. “With an everchanging 21st century and the challenges it posed for raising children, Betty searched for a group of like-minded grandparents who also found themselves caring or helping to care for their grandchildren. At that time, little did Betty realize that she would be the inspiration and provide the leadership for the new grandparents’ group.” Excellence in Action for Leadership Immediate Past Chapter President Becky Hopkins and Mayor Jim Ireton Betty’s journey began at the local government level with County Senior Advocate Debbie Leidheiser. When Leidheiser informed Betty that no such grandparent organization existed and suggested that she start one, Betty accepted. Betty, Leidheiser and county resident Becky Brooke planned the new group throughout spring and summer 2009. The three found an appropriate meeting place with a meeting room for grandparents and space for child care. Betty met the first group of 18 on October 1, 2009. Since that time, the group has held regular monthly meetings on the first Thursday of each month. Betty seeks input from the grandparents in attendance to learn their needs. Meetings typically consist of discussion, help and occasional guest speakers. The group fills a need for grandparents who desire information and an understanding from others having the same experience. Almost two years after its inception, the group continues to meet and held its first celebration, a picnic, in June 2010. 49
