  4. Our hearts are with you. We send you our condolences for the loss you face now and hope she had the peaceful end she rehearsed so recently.

    She remained with you for a long time because of her vibrant, enduring spirit and sturdy constitution. That gave her a chance to spread her spirit over you, for you to absorb and drink in its grab at life. May we all learn from her pizzaz and vibrancy that life has so much to offer, and we should grab for it. And may all those delicious memories comfort and nourish you.

  5. Thinking of you at this time . Sending all our love. May Mom’s memory be for a blessing.

    Roberta,
    I am very sorry for your loss. My mom was a good friend of Bea. Harriett Koslow played many a hand of mahj jong with her. I am sure she will be missed terribly.

    Dear Family,
    Bea always looked her best. She always had a smile. Bea was one of my Bingo players at Tamerisk for several years. May her memory be a blessing. Remember the good times at this time.

    Roberta & Richard:
    I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. She was a pleasure to know & take care of, I’m glad we could bring her home.
    I will miss her sense of humor, her blue eyeshadow & nail polish. She had her own style of fashion. A beautiful lady & will be dearly missed.
