My deepest sympathy to the McDaniel family. The bible gives us such comfort about our loved ones. John 5:28,29 says "All in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out." What a wonderful thought.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in the loss of Miss McDaniel. She was such a beautiful and caring Christian lady. May God give you comfort and peace.

Mrs. Bea worked with my Mom, Alma Padgitt at AG and my Mom spoke highly of her. I know what the family is going through as I lost my Mom in March of this year. My prayers are going out to the family especially to Deborah and Johnny Barclay.
Bea was a beautiful lady inside and out a fine Christian. She will surely be missed.
Our hearts are broken for all of the McDaniel family. Bea will be missed by you and her Church of Christ family. But what rejoicing there is for all of the family and friends that are greeting Bea in Heaven. Bea was a blessing to all who knew her. We will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. In Christain Love, Cleve and Marsha
To The McDaniel Family: So sorry for your loss, my thoughts & prayers are with you in your time of grief.
