Will always remember her smile and annual Christmas cards with a special note to me.

I met Ms. Thomas at The Anthony L. Jordan Health Center where we were both employed about 50 years ago, and I worked in the same dept. with Bea for 15 years. I have memories of her bringing in lemon meringue pies to work in the morning. She was a phenomenal cook! She enjoyed things like a cool glass of water, gave good honest advice, had a beautiful smile, and loved to laugh. She was like a big sister to me and a best friend. I will love and miss her and be forever grateful for all the wonderful memories in Rochester and Atlanta that we had!

Blessings, Love and Condolences to the family. Ms. Bea was my mom's (Helen Prad) best friend. My favorite memory of Ms. Bea is that she was so funny and how cool she was as I drove them all around Atlanta, at a nice rate of speed I might add (smile), and she loved it! She was truly young at heart and will be missed but never forgotten. William, Selina and Sierra Swann

Beatrice! was my sister in Christ! We met at church , I didn't know she was my brother in law Victor, Mother. Beatrice
was a very pleasant person! someone you
can talk to. My husband and I moved from Rochester, to Orlando Florida. But we stayed in touch with each other. She
will call me, I will call her we laugh so much over the phone. I see her every time we came back to Rochester! I'm going to miss her. But I know she's in a better place. You're sister in Christ!
