Ms. Bev was a very special lady. She was kind, smart, funny, patient and loving person. She was always there to make my day and pit a smile on my face. She was a second grandmother to me and it was a privilege to see her almost everyday in that last 1.5 years. We truly had a special relationship. May you rest easy and peacefully. Until we meet again Ms. Bev. Love you

Mrs. Kotlan was always smiling! She was a wonderful neighborhood mom who included me in her church´s ice cream socials and vacation Bible school. Our families mingled. I used to enjoy seeing her working in her yard. She planted a garden yearly without fail. How lucky we all were to have someone with such a light spirit in our lives!

Much love to all of you!
