I am so sorry to hear about Bessie's passing.  What a joy it is to know that she is now in heaven walking with her Lord and Savior.  I so enjoyed getting to know Bessie through her volunteering at Billy Graham Library.  She was always ready with a quick comeback that was always so funny.  She made my day every time she was serving.  She was committed to the end to serve weekly at the BG Library.  She will be greatly missed.

Bessie made a lasting and positive impression on me. When she talked to you, she was 100% present and had a way of making you feel like an old friend. She will be missed.

Brenda & Bobby

Your Mom was everybody's Mom.  She loved, laughed and adored you and your families.  Now she is walking streets of gold, smiling and hugging everybody that was already there.  You will see her again!

Our hearts ache after learning of the passing of Bessie.  She was such a wonderful person to get to know over the years!  Her presence just put a smile on your face.  Every appointment she came with a smile and left everyone feeling better and smiling when she left!  She brightened the room.   Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and everyone who knew her.  She will be missed but remembered!  I'm glad I had the honor and pleasure of getting to know her over the years she visited our office.

I hated to see this  of Bessie passing   She was a good woman    We talked about her trips to Israel   She was very interesting 
 You are in my prayers

I am sorry to hear of Ms. Bessie passing. 
I first met Bessie at church, we became friends right away. I will miss her dearly. 
Your family are in my prayers. May God leave you with fond memories.

Bobby, Brenda and Family, 
May God's grace, love and peace meet all your needs now and in the days following. Bessie and I were friends for over fifty years, having a very close relationship. We worshiped together. prayed and cried together. Bessie served her Lord and Savior in many ways. She was a prayer warrior, women's ministry leader, church officer and worked in the lunch-community reach-out ministry. She made the best chicken and dumplings I have ever eaten! Bessie gave many hours in service at the Billy Graham Library. She was loved by all who knew her and will be greatly missed. My love and prayers in Christ to her family. Teddy Lockwood

Thanks for your friendship Bessie, you will be missed.

Brenda and Bobby, 

I can’t begin to tell you just how sorry I am to hear of your mom’s passing. I have so many childhood memories where both of your parents were there. It saddens me each time I see the passing of any of my longtime friend’s parents, and it seems to happen with more regularity these days. I know that your mom built the character that you will always carry with you, and I have you both in my thoughts and prayers. Love you guys.

Bobby and Brenda,

May fond memories of your mother bring you comfort and peace during this difficult time.  Bessie was a special person and was like a second mom to me.  She was there for me and my family when mom passed away in 2013, which meant so much to me.  She will truly be missed and will always be remembered.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to each of you and your families.

Scott & Sherri

Bessie was a very special lady to me and so many more at  our Westgate Chapter.  Always willing to help when needed.  She was a true Sister in the Eastern Star.  She will be missed by so many.  Rest in piece sweet lady!
