We felt very sad hearing that Bevo has departed this earth. What a special presence he had and a way of just being able to make us feel comfortable and welcomed at family events. Bevo, you truly were a delight to spend time chatting with and I loved hearing the stories of things you'd experienced in your life, especially the special WWII trip to DC and the album of photos you shared about the trip. I'll always remember you watching the YouTube of Joe's dad Ted on my iPhone- We will miss seeing you and we offer our deepest sympathies to your family

My deepest sympathies to the Spitulski Family. Uncle Bevo will be greatly missed. I'm sure he's with Aunt Helen right now. As a matter of fact, the whole "gang" from the cottage is together now. That's a comfort.
