To the Beahm Family, please accept my sincerest condolences on the loss of your wife and mother. She was always kind to me when I would come to the house to pal around with Kristin and was a great conversationalist. May God bless you all and comfort you during this time.

I’ll always remember Loretta as a gracious Lady and a very good friend and one of the “lunch bunch”.  
She will be missed.                                           Jean Rutter
