Saddened to hear about the passing of Bessie. She was a sweet lady. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Growing up Bryan knew Bessie through family gatherings and I knew Bessie and L.D. as one if our closest neighbors. My dad thought a lot if them and visited with them at their pond regularly.. We thought so much of Bessie that we named our 2nd daughter Bessie. My fondest memory is of Bessie meeting us at roaring river and helping the girls put up a tent. It was like watching 3 kids instead of 2. They were laughing and carrying on like 3 best friends!

I am fortunate to have known Bessie by my marriage to Susan Pridemore, Aubrey's sister-in-law. I first met Bessie at a family a family gathering and it was at a New Year's event that she helped teach me how to play " real" dominos. She was a delight to know and will be missed.

I will never forget the summer I spent with Bessie and LD. She taught be how to cook yellow squash. To this day when I cook yellow squash I THINK OF That summer...picking vegetables,leaning to water ski, driving LD's big pickup truck,church and visiting family just a wonderful summer. Bessie was a very special person inside and out! We would talk on the phone and it would bring the summer time! I love her very much. I wish I knew she had become sick again..I would have been on the next plane out. Please any of my cousin can call me @6192755739 anytime. Love to you all Glori.
