Aunt Beulah, was exactly like my dad, Royce Kessinger and we all treasured Beulah although we never got to spend much time with her or family. Her facial expressions, eyes, and personallity was the exact same as Royce and they looked so much a like. She was the kindest person we had ever known and will be missed all of us. I'm sure Royce is playing his Guitar for her right this minute, and Herman a singing, Hurley singing, Hazel singing and smiling, and Hilman playing his fiddle and all the angels gathered round. What a wonderful blessed musicial family we have, and I'm sure aunt Beulah will keep them all in line as they await us all to join them in their heavenly singings, "I'm Going home To Jesus", and she sureley did. God bless you and your family, Mike, Bridget and Molly Kessinger
