    I was so shocked and saddened to finally find my dear friend from Central Heights in Billings. We lost track after her move to New Mexico. And to think , after all this time, we were just a few miles apart . I live in Portland . We had such fun times and good talks. She brightened my life.

    Aunt Bev, I love you. I remember you cutting and perming my hair. You taught me how to cut my own bangs when I was a little girl. You were there for me and Colleen when we needed you, and just because. Always with open arms and a smile. May you rest in peace.

    I haven't seen my Aunt Bev of in years but I remember her and Uncle Bud sitting at the bar in my parents newly-constructed rec room eating snacks and drinking beer. She was kind and beautiful (THOSE EYES) and I was so sorry when she left town. I never saw her again and have always felt bad about that. Rest in peace. my beautiful aunt. Condolences to you. Carla and Kenny.
