We still fondly remember how Aunt Bea welcomed us to her home when we stopped by to visit years ago. It was special for me to meet Grandma Pauline's sister and for Doug to get to visit with his Great-Aunt Bea. He has fond memories of when Aunt Bea, Aunt Helen, and Pauline were all together. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Craig and Bryan,

Your mom and I have had so many years of shared experiences and memories. I'll just miss having her there. She was so beautiful and so kind.

Bryan and Craig, Years have passed
since we saw the two of you and your Mom; Remember, we were neighbors in Daleville and our contacts go back to the rest of the Powers family that my family knew
and loved so much back in the eastern part of the State. We send
to you our heartfelt sympathy. May
your heavy hearts be lightened with
the many wonderful memories you
have of your dear mother.

Bryan and Craig, Our heartful thoughts are with you on the lost of your Mom. We have many fond memories of being with Aunt Bea. She was a lovely person and will be greatly missed. I know there is little anyone can say or do at such a time but perhaps it will help to know that others grieve with you.
