I am so sorry to hear this news. She let us have Bible Study at her house for several years and came to our monthly farm woman’s meeting where we enjoyed a potluck and played games. She was always so much fun. Thoughts and prayers to her family.

Bea was a very special woman. I have many fond memories of hanging out with all of you. Campfires & hayrides in the fall were so much fun. Then life happens, we grow up & our lives move on. Anytime I ran into Bea she was the same sweet person. Coming together sharing your memories and love for each other is priceless. Bea is with our Lord, she is good.
