Dale and Family,
I was so sorry to read the email about Bev! She was a wonderful person and I remember all the good times we have had over the years when you all lived in Memphis! She and I talked about 2-3 weeks ago. Whenever we talked she always talked about her Grandkids! Both of us were Nana. My heart goes out to all of you! I will remember you all in my prayers!!!

Dale, Lisa, Lauren, Andrew and the rest of Bev's Beautiful Family, My heart broke for all of you at the loss of Bev. I will miss receiving her beautiful homemade cards keeping me informed of what was going on in your lives. I know she is rejoicing with Jesus, Speedy and Helen but it does not make your loss easy. I will be praying for all of you in the days, months and years to come. Your mother will always be in my heart for she has left an imprint on it. I loved your mom liked a sister.
