She especially enjoyed her music, dancing, bridge and her beloved pet, Carrie. Mothers greatest love and pleasure were her family and friends. She was indeed a devoted wife, a wonderful loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Mother was a true friend who always saw the good in people. Her kindness and sweet mannerisms left an indelible impression on all who knew her. Mother was a very special and remarkable lady who we all love so dearly. Bessie was a faithful member of the Anglican Church and loved singing hymns.
