    Beverly was just 2 years older than me and I idolized her as we grew up together. Your cousins in those days were best friends. Bev even gave me some of her hand-me-downs. I remember my favorite were the roller-skates she gave me when I was about 10. They were so white and so pretty. I know that the family has had to watch her decline over the past few years - my memories will always be of her as a teenager and young woman - young forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. You loved her till she went to heaven and she will be glad to see you when you arrive.

    From the words of a song, "Friends are friends forever if the Lord is Lord of them" is how I will always remember Beverly. Although Bruce and she moved from Pennsylvania when he was in the service our friendship remained strong. We shared the same faith, thought the same thoughts and held onto the same values. Whenever we would visit via the telephone it was though we were living next to one another as neighbors. Our friendship will go on, for one day we will again visit for eternity. My condolences go to Bruce, Sandy, Harvey, Kelly, Stephen, Bev's extended family and all her many friends. I keep all of you close to my heart for as Beverly's Mom said, "We are family".

    Kelly -- we were very sorry to hear of your loss. I know the decline must have been very hard for all of you guys and am happy that you were able to be such a strong and supportive daughter throughout a terrible ordeal. Hopefully over time it will be the happier memories that resonate with you guys the most. We made a donation in your mother's name to the Michael J. Fox Foundation, this was a great suggestion and we were very happy to do it. We wish you and your family the best moving forward.
