I will miss Beth dearly,every week for the last nearly 25 years except a holiday or vacation. She was a great client and a good friend. We shared many stories, laughs and troubles too. We talked about everything,from Abbottsford to her travels and all about Milwaukee. Thanks to her for many visits and for always being patience with me, as I would call her weekly and she would come when I said . Peace out my friend until we meet again ,you will be one of my Angels!
