I am so sorry for our loss of a sister, mother, and daughter. Fly high Sis. Always on our hearts. I love you.
I will miss our weekly visits. Bev was a very special person to Mark and I. When I’d go visit, the first thing she would do was to ask about Mark and then Sonny and Gerry, She always was thinking of others and never complained during her illness. She will be missed by many.
I would walk forever..just to see you again..I love you Mom..
I am so sorry to hear of Beverly passing. Always liked her. My deepest condolences to her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, great great children, sisters and brother and their families.
So long Mrs. S ~ I will see you again where there is no pain, sorrow, sadness, or suffering. I remember how Mr. S used to talk to me all about those spiritual things, miss you both! Hugs and prayers for you Lorrie and all of your family. <3
