"I missed you when you moved to Bethany, always enjoyed our talks, and I know the dogs enjoyed seeing you come around, since you always had something for them. You were a good neighbor and friend."
"I will miss Bev very much! She was my quilter at the Bethany Senior Center in Missouri for many years. She was one of my RSVP (Retired & Senior Volunteer Program) volunteers. She quilted at least 20 or my of our fundraiser quilts primarily by herself. I saw her 5 days a week for 20 hours per week. And helped piece together hundreds of puzzles as well. She was a remarkable woman! ~ Ann Pettit"
