Miss Bea will be buried next to her first husband, Henry Tidwell. Note marker is under the name of Mavis L. Tidwell and not Roberts.
Miss Bea and Henry lived on the Hosston Road for as long as anyone can remember. Henry and Bea loved to "entertain" all the kids in the neighborhood. When Miss Bea moved to be near her daughter in Baton Rouge she graciously shared many of native flowers with everyone. So most of us have a little bit of Miss Bea with us.
