She left us with lots of memories, lots of laughs, lots of reasons for why we are such a close family! There are thousands of "Bea Shipp" stories that we will be telling for years to come.

Amen! LOL! Aunt Bea was like an aunt to all who knew her. Thank you Lord for letting her hang out with us for awhile. Aunt Bea will be missed but always remembered. We Love you Aunt BeaI am going on a journey To a place I long to go A land thatÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢s filled with angels Where the peaceful valleys flow. I have no need for luggage So I plan to travel light A first-class trip to heaven ItÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢s a non-returning flight. There wonÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢t be tears of sadness Sweet blessings I will reap A torch will burn eternal And the soul doth never sleep. I do not need an auto There is no bus or train My journey is predestined And I wonÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢t be back again. No need for food or shelter Everything I need is there My home that lies in heaven Is a joy beyond compare. I am ready for my venture Got the voucher in my hand IÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢m bound for Zion glory In that far-off distant land. I am headed for that City My flight was paid for me To a land of peace and beauty Just beyond the crystal sea. I soon will have my ticket There is no need to pack On a one-way trip to heaven And I wonÃ?â??Ã¢â?¬â?¢t be coming back.Author- Unknown Springfield, IL US
