Aunt Bessie i will miss you dearly. You were there for me when mommom died (your sister Dot) and I was grateful. I will miss your smile, your laughter and most of all your jokes. You were one hell of a woman. I am truly honored to be your great niece. I love you and miss you. My wishes and prayers with the family.

Rest in peace my dear friend. You were a great consolation to me after my husband died. We had some great times together with and without our friend Bill. To the family, you have many, many memories to hold dear to your heart of a loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother.
