To Emma Beasley's daughter Debbie & family,
I did not know your precious Mother, but read in the newspaper about her. You are in my prayers, that you will find comfort in the arms of our loving God. We do not understand why such things happen to those we love, but we can rest assured that the instant your Mother's eyes closed in death on this earth, she opened them in Heaven to a world more beautiful and glorious than we can ever imagine, a world with no more crime and injustice, no more pain, no more tears of sadness, and no more death. Your beautiful Mother is more alive than ever before in our Lord's kingdom. My precious Mother went to Heaven on June 20, 2010 at the age of 88. She lived with my husband and me. I had lived with her all of my life for 53 beautiful years, even after marrying for the first time at 51. My husband moved in with us. She was, and will always be, my very best friend. I look forward to that great "reunion day" when God takes me Home. Debbie, your Mother is watching over you and her spirit is around you keeping check on you. Even though you cannot see her, she sees you. You have that great "reunion day" to look forward to also. May God comfort you and your family at this time.

Sincerely,
Pamela Rhoden

To The Beasley Family, Please let me say that there simply are no words to express the depth of sadness we all are feeling with and for each of you. Your precious mother was such a delicate, dear lady whom I fondly and affectionately remember from my childhood. I remember that she loved The Lord and her family very much. She and my little mother were special friends and spoke often of their dreams for each of us. My brother, Harold's untimely funeral was only two days ago and the last conversation we had(though a while ago) was our travels back down memory lane and he spoke of your dear mother and father with such profound respect, and of course Tommy (Buzz) was his "best friend". Harold died just two days before your mother, so couldn't have known of your sorrow. It somehow comforts my heart to beleive that he went ahead to hold out a welcoming hand to escort her into that ineffable place of Perfect Peace and Beauty. Where they will join with the hosts of our loved ones who preceded them and be gathered in the supreme company of a Loving God who alone knows our grief, Who fully understands the things we cannot. Please know that you will always remain in our family's hearts and sincerest prayers.

I did not know Mrs. Emma nor the family, but I want to offer my sincere condolences. It seems as though the sweetest and most least deserving people die in the worse ways. But we can all relate to God who gave his son to die on our behalf and it was too, in an awful manner that he died. Mrs. Emma is with God now and she wouldnt want you to be sad. I pray for your expeditious healing. May God Bless your family now and always.
