Bessie and JB were long time members of The Sounds of Pentecost Church on Palm and Filburn. They were dedicated to their faith, their family and their church. At 93 years of age she was able to "Go Home" as she put it so often from her own home thanks to her wonderful and caring Hospice team Bryan, Shaina, Maria and Bertha and especially Malia for all the words of comfort and the beautiful songs you sang to her.
