To the family of Bessie, bless each one of you. I extend my deepest sympathy to you in this time of great loss. May God surround and support you emotionally and spiritually with His compassion, comfort, love, kindness, strength, and peace. Bessie sounds like she was truly an incredible person.
My Aunt Bessie was love personified, there’s not a person on earth who could or would refute that claim. I have a lot of favorite memories with her, but the one that I think of often is the day of my wedding. Before I went to go and have my hair done, I went to her house where she and Aunt Dale had cooked breakfast for me. It was the most precious time, just sitting around the table and chatting and laughing about how nervous I was. Hearing her advice, meant the world to me. I will never forget how much she lit up every time we got a chance to FaceTime, I loved being able to catch up with her and was so heartbroken that I was unable to be there to see her in person like I would’ve liked. I am so grateful to know that she is healed and no longer suffering, and most importantly reunited with those who passed before her. If ever there were a good and faithful servant, it was her. I will carry her with me every day for the rest of my life. 💜

I have many favorite memories with her, but the one I go back to often happened on the morning of my wedding day. Before I set off to go and have my hair done I went by her house and found out that she and my Aunt Dale had cooked breakfast for me. I will never forget sitting at the table while she was standing in the kitchen, preparing food that would be served later at my wedding, talking, laughing mostly, at how nervous I was. She was actually one of the first people to see my wedding dress, not long after I bought it. It was such a special memory that I will carry with me forever. I will never forget how much her face lit up whenever we got an opportunity to FaceTime, I loved to be unable to catch up with her and just hear her voice. I hate that I was unable to see her in person and hug her how she deserved to be hugged. I’m so grateful to know that she is whole and healed and no longer suffering. I will miss her for the rest of my life.
