"My deepest sympathy to the Burnett Family

Death . . . is no more than passing from one room into another. But theres a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.

"Thinking of you during your time of loss."

"Thinking of you during this very sad time."

"The first time I saw her it was at my 4th birthday party, she had brought Carolyn over. Actually it was the first time I met them both. They bought me a pink princess phone, which I loved. She was so warm and friendly, I remember wanting to climb up in her lap and have hug me up. In my eyes she was the perfect mom.
After I got older and Carolyn and I became better friends, she would sometimes take us to her work Delaneys and then later the bowling alley. We got to help her in the kitchen and then listen to the jukebox or bowl. I sure we where annoying at times, but did not seem to mind. I remember admiring how her customers loved her too.
She was the most angelic person I have ever known. I say this because I never, ever heard she say any harsh words towards anyone or anything, even though she may have been upset set with them, she never really showed anger, at least not when I was around. But I really think she was no different around with anyone else. Sometimes she would even make excuses for someones behavior, Oh, you know he dont mean no harm or she really did not mean to do that I believe in my heart that she could not the bad in anyone, so maybe she just looked for the good. She was the most compassionate person I ever knew. She taught me so many things one was how to be compassionate
She always had a sweet little smile and a little twinkle in her eye and a heart full of love. She used to assure me that someday I would find happiness in my life, and told we sometimes we have to patient. By her example, I learned patience.
She also taught me how to sew by hand, when the hem in my dress had ripped. She taught me to make cream gravy, sour dough biscuits and just about everything you could want to know about southern cooking.
Another thing that I learned from Bell was a sense of self, you are who you are. And who she was, was very wonderful, I only wish I could live up to her standards on life and living it.
She told me one time and I think of this every day, Eat and be merry for tomorrow you may die it was her way of saying, Live your life to the fullest, with no regrets. I loved her so much she was a Mother to me.
I am so blessed to have had her in my life.
