She was not only my mom, but my best friend! We were really close. She touched many lives during her life. I'm glad she's not in pain anymore. I love you mom!

It's such a shock to know that she's gone. I have so many wonderful memories of her. I loved spending the night at her house when I was a child, and my children still remember going to eat at "Aunt Bea's" place when she had the restaurant. I loved her dearly, and will miss her tremendously. My love and prayers to her family.

Aunt Berniece.... I spent a great deal of time at her house(es), even when she lived in Lee's Summit. We were a close family and I adored her and enjoyed the times we had with her. I regret losing touch these last few years and will miss her greatly.
