    Since moving to California and visiting Madison, seeing BJ was something I looked forward to. She was always engaged in what I was up to and we had always had great conversation. When Ardyn and Cole came into the world they also began looking forward to...  more

    I always looked forward to BJ being at any event. Her presence guaranteed that at least one person would be genuinely interested in talking to me and everyone at the event! Some people are good at talking to people because over time they have developed...  more

    You were a great Nana to Will and Johnny. They loved when you read stories to them, and danced with them. We have so many fond memories of celebrating Christmas with you every year too. We will miss your vibrant smile, gregarious nature and music loving spirit!
