Elizabeth Ann Killam

Im just finding out about my grandma, i was too young to remember her but ive heard great stories

We are just finding out about Beth's death. We are sorry that we could not have been with you as you said your last "I love you" to her. Baker, you were so present to us when Tom was going through his bout with cancer; you and Beth made such a difference in our lives. Beth was such a CLASSY lady and such a delight to be around. Her radiance was apparent the moment she was in our midst. Singing brought our a passion in Beth that for those around her was contagious; the choir had many great times watching her laugh and enjoy life. We grieve with you and your family and we will ALWAYS remember Beth....she made an impression on all of us.

Beth Love,
I will miss you at the Book Club, I always enjoyed listening to you. I wish I had known that you liked cigars.
I brought some Cuban's back from Scotland that we could have enjoyed together. You were my Secret Santa. I loved the book you gave to me at Christmas and I will treasure it forever. I am sorry I missed your memorial but I visited Kindred Spirit and said a special prayer for you. You were a Kindred Spirit!

Beth,
Thank you for joining us at Book Club and giving us your own unique perspectives.
It's hard to think you won't physically be with us each month, but our memories of you will be of a happy, interesting person who expected to be with us next month same as we did.
To her family, she spoke of you all often. Baker and kids, after the pain passes, your memories and stories of Beth will be with you forever - and keep you good company.

What a lovely tribute to a gentle, funny, wonderful woman. Those of us from the "Happy Bookers" will miss her terribly. I know I looked forward each month to hearing her interpretation of our reading, and often learned a new way of looking at something. Thanks, Beth, for being part of my world. And, thanks to her family for allowing Jerry and I to be part of the celebration of life on Saturday.

Beth helped me to become the women I am today. She always made me laugh, and think about life. I always was inspired to do the right thing because of her love and wisdom. She always made every holiday and birthday speical for me. She gave Godiva for my 16th birthday, and always got me presents from New York. She got me a ring from Tiffanys that I wear everyday, and a pen I write with. She was the best women I know, and the coolest aunt. I felt I could tell her anything, and she loved it. She knew how to throw parties, and when I turned 21 I loved to have cocktails with her. Beth inspired me everyday, and the rest of my college life, and life will be a testment to her greatness. Aunt Beth, I know you are looking down from heaven(with a Manhatten in one hand, and a fine cigar in the other), dressed in some fab outfit, feasting on chocolate with Pop and Grandma Ols. I miss you and will always love you, and thank you for everything you did for me.
Love,
Your Cookie

We are saddened at your loss of your wife, mother, and grandmother. We are happy that you have such wonderful memories to share. Knowing Beth, she lived life to the fullest. I am glad to have known her, it is tough thinking of death, but Jesus, our Lord, conquered death on the cross.

Shall claim of death cause us to grieve and make our courage faint and fall? Nay! Let us Faith and Hope receive - the Rose still grows beyond the wall.
