    So sorry for your loss. Beulah Rose always reminded me of a younger version of Grandma Lela. May God comfort you at this time and know she is reunited with Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Bob, and my dad Gary Greathouse and many more family that is with God now. My prayers are with all of you.

    Sorry old friend for your loss. Wish I could have met her in person. She had to have been a wonderful person. Will be thinking of you, and praying for you, especially these next few days and months. After all the years I am sure it is going to be tough on you.

    Will try to get in touch with you this summer on way to Memphis. God Bless.
