Dear Lola and Family
My sincerest condolences on your loss. I will miss Bessie terribly. I have the fondest of memories that date back to my early childhood with too many to mention. And who can forget many of us teenagers completing the rites of passage taking and passing our drivers license test at MVA with none other then our beloved Bessie. Please rest in paradise. Until we meet again

Ms. Bessie, thank you for making me an expert in fitting and tapering your fabulous garments. You introduced me to Lily & Taylor suits and hats and Talbots. I missed our Saturday fittings and conversations. Thank you and Lola for your confidence in trusting me in altering your beautiful outfits. You were not only my client, you were and always will be a special friend.

My Condolences to Ms. Lola and the Family. Ms. Bessie was a Beautiful woman with a beautiful smile every time I would see her. Lola, Ms. Bessie and I would talk about cooking and when they were going home. She was a sharp dresser, I would admire them both.

Bessie: A "beautiful", fun-loving person inside and out! She will certainly be missed, not only @ Union Baptist, but throughout the
Capital District. Sleep in Heavenly peace.
