 CONDOLENCES

To Sharon and all of Bea's Family;
I had the pleasure of meeting this beautiful lady several years ago, even though she and Sharon  have been special friends of our family for many years.  Bea was a very special lady, and if there are Angels on this earth, she was one. Her smile, and character touched the hearts of all that met her. She will be greatly missed. Lovingly, Nina Broughton Jordon

Sharon, and Family, I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. She was a very graceful lady and in the times I met her and saw her with you she always had a smile on her face. I know she will be terribly missed by her family and all who knew and ever had the privilege of meeting her. I know how empty your heart is at this time, but through God's love and grace He will see and help you through these difficult days ahead. Her memories will forever be with you. Please let me know if I can do anything at all for you or your family.
