Bessie was such a kind and wonderful person with a big heart and so full of life. We shared a very special friendship. I will miss our conversations about people and the neighborhood. I remember the time we went to The Westbury Music Fair to see a DooWop show. It brought back special memories for both of us. My heart and prayers goes out out to the family. May you rest in peace my dear friend.
