To the family "Birdsong":
A harbor's lighthouse has been shuttered! "Nothing", prepares us for the inevitable. Just know that you are
not alone in your loss. The Villa launched a many "ships" that benefited
from "mama B's" bright light. May we all go forth with her memory, realizing
the we are better because of it. What a
long and special journey!!! Rest In Peace Mrs. B...

My condolences to the Birdsong family. Nobody could make biscuits like Miss Bessie--every biscuit I've eaten for the past 40+ years has been compared to hers. More to her credit, though, is that she is the only person I can remember being at a huge party other than my family and the hosts. Miss Bessie's spirit, dignity and grace captivated me, and I was filled with awe watching her--a brief moment that has lasted a lifetime.
