Beanie was a treasure to care for. She was always so full of spunk and I could tell she was a great lady with lots of “character” in her day. Deepest condolences to the Gordon family, sending comfort and prayers for healing.

I love you Beanie. You were an amazing person & I wish I had more time with you. You’re always in my heart & Shade will always remember you as you remembered her. Tell Mokey I miss him. You were really an amazing woman! I’ve looked up to you my entire life & I’m so glad I was able to see you one last time. My words can not express the joy and love I have for you. I love you always. Love Taj.
