  1. Sending sympathy to all of Beulah’s
    Family, and with caring love to Kathy
    (and Michael) as they go forward with
    God’s guidance to adjusting to life with-
    out her.
    All The Tandy Family

  2. I had the pleasure of doing Beulah’s hair for many years. I have great memories of her and Ralph. She was a special lady.

  3. I have So many Wonderful memories of my time spent with Beulah from the first time I saw Robert Lee at her house for she and Jay were our next-door neighbors for many years. I so enjoyed the first time she invited me over to have a burger that she cooked on the grill, it was the best tasting hamburger that I ever put in my mouth. The many years of being her sister-in-law and styling her hair for many years. She will be so very missed but I know her Family shouted “HALLELUJAH” when she came through those Heavenly Gates. Love Shirley

  4. Kathy and family, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart aches with you knowing how hard it is to let our parents go. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Love Karen Craig

  5. Beautiful, you are going to be SO missed by everyone that knew and loved you. I will miss you calling on our birthday most of all. Rejoice in Heaven!
