Such sweet memories of godly women who had an unbreakable friendship and were dedicated to their families. I pray you and your entire family feel peace, comfort and strength from our Heavenly Father. Love, Laurie Anne

So sorry to hear about aunt Bea passing. She was my godmother and a great help when I started my nursing career just like her. I remember what a great friend she was to my mom. I’m sure you will all miss her as much as I miss my mom. I’ll keep you in my prayers love Karen.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
