I am so sorry for your loss. Beth was a wonderful person and will certainly be missed. I knew Beth from the time we were young and went to the same Sunday school. We lost touch but then started talking again in High School. We had a great time hanging around on our Senior class trip. I can not express how sorry I am for all of you. I am so glad that I knew her and could call her a friend.
