Sister Bean (Jane) has been a great friend to me and my entire family. Jane always had a smile and hug for me every Sunday in church. She would always compliment me and tell me how much her and Brother Bean loved me. Well, I love them!!! I will miss her so much. She is a wonderful example of what we all should strive to become! I will forever be grateful to count her as one of my friends.

I am so very sorry to hear of Jane's passing. She was the kindest and most caring Mother to her children. She worked hard all of her life and ask very little in return. Always willing to help, making other people's happiness her first priority. I am so sorry that I wasn't able to attend her service. My prayers are with her family in this time of grief.

Dear Bean Family,
We send our deepest sympathy to all of you. We have only lived in Nephi for just over 2 years and Jane was someone who showed us her love immediately! Brother Bean was right here to give Bob a blessing when he needed one so badly, that is one of the most special gifts ever, sharing of your love. We will treasure forever the potato holder Jane made and sent over to us! What a wonderful and celestial person! Our love goes out to all of you.

To my dear sweet little momma,
Even at the very end, being so sick, you were worrying about all of us.
The whole world seems so empty without you here on earth. But I am just grateful you aren't suffering any more. I know you are happy in Heaven with all of your loved ones around you there.
I'll miss you so much for the rest of my life.
Love you. Julie

The most loving person I have ever known. Grandma, you had a gift of making each and every person in your life feel loved. It's easy for us to be selfish and want you to stay here with us forever. But we are grateful and blessed that you shared your beautiful life with us. Saying goodbye is a tremendous heartache. You will always be loved.

Dear Bean Family,
My deepest sympathies go to your family at the passing of your dear mom. Jane Bean was the finest and hardest working employee that Pexton Wholesale ever had. She boxed candy with an expertise like no other, and would never rest until the job was done, and done well. She taught me a great deal about hard work and laughter. No one could make rolls any better than Jane! I will always remember her for her phrase "A Whole Sluggy Bunch!" Her example will remain with me for all my days.

Richard and Family,
I know that you are all sharing the sweet sorrow of losing such a tremendous example to those she touched. She has been my neighbor for 18 years. She helped with my two sets of twins when they were young and enjoyed our visits as they grew up. She would just bring over cookies just because. She took the time to show me how to make bread. And I loved to just stop in and visit with the both of you. But every time we would depart she would say, “I love you”.
Richard your heart is in pieces and for that I am sorry that I can not take that pain away from you. Just remember that you and Jane are my friends and my family in the gospel. Thank you for being my friend, substitute grandparents to my children, my example for parenting and more. Thank you for Loving me and my Family.
“Thanks for coming! We Love You Guys. Come see us soon!” were our last departing words.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I also just lost my mother (Margaret) 3 months ago. She also had a long illness and Jane was always there for us to help out in any way she could. She would bring us meals when my mom would get out of the hospital which really helped me out between taking care of my mom plus working. I am truly grateful to know someone so selfless and caring! Thank you for all your help Jane I will miss you!

My grandma was the most kindest, caring, loving person I have ever known. She was the greatest example of showing Christlike love to everyone. I already miss her so much already, but am comforted to know that she is not suffering anymore, and she is in a much happier place. I can't wait to be with her again.

Valerie and Family:
I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of cute little Grandma Bean. Both Grandma and Grandpa were such a support to Linsey when Ryan passed. They were so kind, so loving, so protective.
I know Ryan and Grandma are sharing stories with each other now and watching out for all their loved ones from above.
I wish you the gift of memory whenever you need to know the ones you love still walk with you wherever you may go.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
Love,

My husband and I are sorry to hear of this loss of Elsie. She was so sweet to those around her. How comforting it is to reflect on the promise of Jesus in John 5:28,29 and Luke 23:43. We know we will see our loved ones in paradise.

Dear Valerie,
I was just asking my Aunt Betty Sanders a few weeks ago if she knew where you and Tracy were living. It's hard to believe it's been 36 years since our Cheyenne, Wyoming Air Force days. I'm sorry for the passing of your Mother. I lost mine almost two years ago and even though we know they are in a wonderful place, waiting for us, there is such an empty spot in your heart and life. Thank goodness for the gospel of Jesus Christ and the plan of salvation that we know to be true. May our Heavenly Father bless you, your family, and especially your father at this time.
I would love to hear from you.
Blessings always,

My Sweet Sweet Mom, I miss you so much already. I am so honored I was with you to the very end. I am so privlaged to have my own Gaurdian Angel. Love You Forever,Like you for always, VIRGINIA
