My sweet sister elder Colegrove. What an honor and privilege to have met and know you and part of your beautiful family. I will always cherish that. I will remember the day we went to ladies retreat. How you tucked me in bed and got on Phyllis for trying to steal my blanket.. you were like a second mom to me. Love you dearly until that sweet day when we all meet again with Jesus.

My precious aunt Beverly! The memories I hold so close of you!! Sometimes, when I least expect it, you come and share some sweet morsel with me. I hear the memories you share with all of us; your amazing memory and all those fabulous pictures. Rest in peace, sweet Beverly, take your rest and I will see you soon. Love you more than words and so very, very grateful for your generous wisdom, wit and knowledge.
