Bess, our dear special friend forever! Oh how we treasure the wonderful times we had with her and her family through all those great years in Emmett. She was truly an example of the way we should all live and treat others. She was loving, charitable and had a great sense of humor. We had so much fun together and was "the life of the party" when we played games with her and Waldo and other friends. She is the QUEEN OF GAMES! Our heartfelt sympathy goes to her great family at this time.

What a sweet, sweet lady. She loved serving in Primary and teaching the 11 year old girls. She would always say "I just love those girls" and you knew it was true. She will be missed.
