Mrs. Williams was one of my mothers. Andrew and I started First Pres. Day School together when we were five years old. I was being raised primarily by my aunt and grandmother. I went home with Andrew one weekend for a sleep over and rest is history.  Beverly took me in like one her own and my life was better for it. She taught me important things about etiquette and being a gentleman and made me feel loved.  As I got older our relationship morphed into a wonderful friendship that I will forever cherish. I cannot imagine my childhood and life without her and its hard to believe she is gone.  I will forever be affected by her love of God and family. She had an infectious laugh and she love to have a good time, but she had the love of a mother, the heart of a lion, and the spirit of a warrior. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

Beverly was a wonderful southern lady that I love so much❤️
We have been friends since 1976. She taught me many things about life, love of friendship and family. She taught me "About the finer things in life" that is how she put it anyway.  We traveled, we planned many Presidents Reception for the Mississippi Dental Assistant Association  and had lots dinner parties. We had a group of Dental Assistants that we called "The Odonts" we have stood beside each other just like a family.  Most of all I loved her because she loved my daughter, my grandchildren (4 of them) and she loved me as a daughter. I will miss her dearly, but I do know that I will see her again. She love being a Christian, when I lived with her we would just break out singing old hymns and look up verses in the Bible to get us through whatever we were going through at the time. I'm so thankful GOD took her home peacefully while she was sleeping.
