Dear Family & Friends of Beverly,

I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss of Beverly. I had the opportunity to know her when she worked at Paint. She was full of life and sunshine. Her smiling face and gentle soul were a bright spot in my day. I know she will be looking down at all of you and the warmth of her spirit will be with us all. My prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

Baker Family,

Words cannot express the sadness I feel for your family and all of those whose lives were touched by Beverly. I was lucky enough to get to know her while she worked at Paint. Over time and many "girl-talks", Beverly became one of my favorite people at the salon and I always looked forward to seeing her beautiful, smiling face. As a regular customer, I called there often and always made a point of asking for her because I liked her so much...I also often kidded her about her petite physique and how I would be more than happy to share some of my ample bottom-end with her. She has forever left an imprint on my heart and I seek solace in that there is one more guardian angel somewhere watching over me.

Losing a loved one is the hardest thing that one can face, but if we believe and know they are in a better place we can learn to deal. My sympathy is with you and your family in this time of need. I grew up with Frank and I am sure that anyone that he associated with is just as caring as he was. My prayers are with your family.

September 30, 2005

To the Baker Family:

Our family was deeply saddened by your loss and the loss of young Frank. Please keep your daughter's memories close to your heart.

Our deepest condolences. She is an angel now.

To Beverly's Family - Mitchel and I had the pleasure of knowing Beverly because she was the love of my Brother Azad's life these past several years. We spent birthdays and holidays together and she had become part of our family. She was a beautiful person and it is a tragedy that she has been taken away, so suddenly, and at such a young age, when she had her whole life ahead of her and so much more to look forward to and experience. She will be terribly missed, by all of us, most especially by Azad, who loved her with all of his heart. She has touched our lives and we will remember her always through the memories we have shared with her. We are deeply sorry for your loss. Our hearts ache for you during this difficult time and our thoughts and prayers are with you. May God give you the strength to get through.



With Love,

September 30, 2005

But your all in our thoughts and prayers and have been since we heard about the terrible tragedy. My daughter was a very good friend of "lil Frankie" & my husband is a very good friend & distant cousin of Frankie.

Please take care.

So beautiful, so sweet, so caring. Such a terrible loss. Beverly and my daughter Chloe were inseparable. Together every day. She was a part of our family and we all feel a terrible void without her. We will never forget her or the love that she gave us.
