It is so hard to say goodbye to those we love and cherish. So many loved Beth Ann partly because she loved so many and openly showed it. Rest in the arms of angels forever as your just reward. I always looked forward to your wit and humor, of which you could light up a room. We will miss her and keep her family in our thoughts and prayers. Larry & Jann

Oh, Beth Ann, you look so beautiful and happy in this picture and this is the way I’ll remember you always. I’m such a neglectful friend; I guess I thought I had all the time in the world to visit you and tragically, I didn’t. May you now enjoy life in the presence of God our Savior, free of everything but love and laughter. Marsha

I had no idea how blessed I was going to be when I got the privilege of becoming Mrs.Bethanne's hairdresser. Her and Mr. Jerry became family. My girls loved Mrs.Bethanne and will miss her. I will miss Mrs. Bethanne very much but am so thankful for having the chance to get to know her.

Beth Ann and I worked together 1st at Child Welfare, located on 2nd and Cypress in Orange, Texas, and then later(20 plus years) for Orange County Probation ....She was a great person and my friend....Our husbands also worked at the same plant in Orange....So many great memories......Beth Ann grew up in Sour Lake, and one of her memories she told me was how much she loved to come home from school and her dad would have raked up the leaves and would be burning them and her mother would have these wonderful tuna sandwiches ready for her, and then later they would all load up and go to the ball game.. Beth was my sponsor on The Walk to Emmas .....She loved our Lord and she is with Him right now......She loved her family to the moon and back......and she especially loved her cowboy Jerry.
