Dear Katy, I am just so sad and sorry for you and your daughter. I am shocked and had no idea. I remember us in high school and how much we all loved Beau then, so reading about his wonderful life was no suprise to me! I am so happy for all your wonderful memories and that you married your high school sweetheart. My heart hurts for you and your family and please know I am thinking of you and when i think of Beau I have a smile on my face. Your friend Vickee Jones, Newton, Walthall

Kate--
I am so sorry to hear about Beau. I had no idea-my mom just called me after reading it in the paper. It's been so long since I've seen you and I just didn't know. I am so, so sorry. You were the couple for the ages. How we all loved Beau and Katy! Oh my, I so enjoyed all our times together--double dating--what fun we had. I will keep you and your precious daughter in my prayers. Love you!
Kate! C!

I coached Beau when he was a young boy in baseball. He was on his dad's team. What I remember was how well he listened to instructions. He was a fierce competitor and leader to others on how he played the game. It was fun being around him and I'm honored to have known him.

I learned of Beau's passing and I am in shock. I coached Beau in little league and later in senior 3&2 baseball. He was always
such a pleasure to coach.I will always have fond memories of Beau. I am in Texas and will be unable to attend the services but my heart is with all of you.

Frances, it is not the natural order for a parent to lose a child. I remember what a good mother you were and still are to all of your children. The Lord just seemed to need Beau at this time. He is having a reunion with his father and grandmother and other friends and family that always meant so much to him. We send prayers for you, as the Lord lifts you and the rest of your family up in His loving arms. Beau will be there waiting to see all of you one day.

We seem to always be at a loss for words at times like this. Katy and Phoebe, you were so blessed with Beau, as he was with you both. Try to find only the good memories, he is not far from you, just over your shoulder and with your faith you will surely see him again one day. Beau is once again whole and healthy and always there with you both. God has promised to always be there for you. We send our love and prayers. John and Sherry Swearngin, Sedalia, Mo.

Dear Kate, Phoebe and family,
My heart cries for you all. Beau was a "stand up" man among us.
It is time to grieve, but there will be peace and a time to heal as well.
On a lighter note, personally, I think this storm is Beau's way of saying "I have arrived"...
Love to you all,
Shelli

Dear Mrs. Groceman, Katy, Phoebe, and the reaming family members,
I was so very sorry to hear of Beau's passing. He was a great person, a proud dad, and a good friend to many. Life seems to fly by so fast and I am very thankful that a number of us got to see and visit with Beau at our 30th class reunion this past summer.
I know whatever sport they have in heaven, Beau will be right in the thick of things. I will never forget my friend Beau.
May God help heal your hearts and souls during this very difficult time. God Bless you all and I will keep you in my prayers.
