I have known Beulah all my life. She was my oldest sister's mother-in-law. She was a wonderful lady. I can remember as a child how godly she was. She never ate a bite without saying the blessing first. That showed me at a early age how important God was to her. She never met a stranger and was kind to all. She and my mother, Frances Smith, was always laughing and joking. My mother passed away in Sept 2003, and I know that both of them are in heaven right now laughing and joking. I will miss Beulah's smile.

I have been knowing Beulah Adkins for a number of years and I can say that she was a good christian who really loved the lord. I know she will be missed by those who knew herbut she is at home now with Jesus. No more pain, no more sickness and no more tears and knowing Beulah, she is sitting at the feet of Jesus just thanking and praising him for her finally being there. We will all see you in a little while. Loretta Barbour
