I just learned today of Mary Beth's sudden entrance into heaven. My heart and prayers go out to all of you. She will be so deeply missed. I always loved talking with her at the hair salon and sharing our love for Christ and the blessings He has given us. She always expressed her love for her family. May you find rest knowing she is where she always knew she would be - in God's loving arms.

There simply are no words to express the sadness I feel for each of you.
We spent so much time together as the kids were growing up. I can’t go through old pictures without coming across so many wonderful memories. ( so many of you, Allison and Annie in many hilarious poses.)
When she moved away we promised to keep in touch but life happens and we didn’t. We ran into each other recently , talked for a long time,exchanged numbers and she texted me saying how wonderful it was to see one another and couldn’t wait to catch up we didn’t get that chance. She was a truly wonderful person, an example of how each of us needs to live. She loved, and beamed with pride and cared for each member of her family . You will never know why she was taken so soon, but there is no doubt she is sitting next to Jesus soaking in HIS glory and listening with an enormous smile. She will forever watch over each of you. May the peace and comfort of Christ strengthen you as you navigate through this difficult time. God Bless. With love, Suzann

Dear Mary Beth, I only met you a few times, but knew you were a wonderful person & a true soldier in God’s army. I do not pretend to know why these things happen, but understand it’s not for me to know. It’s In God’s hands. You are now in the arms of Jesus. There are no words to express to all of your family what I feel for them. Rest in the knowledge that Mary Beth is home now!

I got to know Mary Beth from the salon she worked at. Mary Beth was one of the most wonderful humans that I have ever encountered. Her beautiful smile and personality could light up a room. She always took the time to ask about my family and would always say she would pray for moments in need. Many people say those words, but I always knew Mary Beth truly meant that she would take the time to pray. She will truly be missed by everyone that was ever blessed to know her. May God help you through your heartbreak during this difficult time.
