My Mother, Florence Bradley baby sat for Bea when we lived in McFarland and our lives also crossed paths with her sister Freda as she was one of my teachers. I will always remember her kindness & beauty both inside and out.
Blessings and may all the wonderful memories comfort your family during this time.

Mrs. Smith was my third grade teacher and one I have never forgot. I am almost 56 and still remember and share stories of one amazing teacher who had such an impact on me. I have very vivid memories of those days and they are precious to me. She loved teaching and that was made obvious by all that knew her. My love and deepest sympathies to all of her family. She was a "gem", and one I will never forget.
