My Dear Brandon, Bradley, Aunt Louise, Michael, Claudia and Jeff,
I just learned of the horrific news this weekend and am just reeling. I am so sorry that this happened. Beth Ann was more than a cousin to me. I count her as one of my close friends. We were seperated by miles but always close in heart. Words seem so inadequate but please know that your family in Texas loves you. I am keeping you all in my prayers.
Love,
Tracy

Your mom was a wonderful, thoughtful and caring person who has forever left her mark on my life. She was the one I turned to when I first started as a substitute at Mooresville and "nursed" me through the transition to aide. She was the one to turn to for orchestra questions (my son, Alex, was in Brad's graduating class and was also in orchestra) as well as everything else. She always had a smile, a gentle answer, and a caring shoulder when times were tough. I have missed her since she left Mooresville.
She always kept me up-to-date on the status of "her boys", the pride of her life. I cannot imagine the sadness you must feel right now, but I think she would want you to remember the good times and recreate them in your own way when you get to be parents yourselves. Her legacy will live on in the caring we can give to others through her example.

Words cannot tell you how our community is feeling with this loss of your mother and father. They will truly be missed at Southmont. Christmastime is a bad time to have something like this happen to your family. I know because it has happened in my family too. Time does help, but you will always miss them. Just remember that they are with our Heavenly Father now and have no pain or tears. God will take care of your needs and we are all hear for you anytime you need us. Take care.

I work at Southmont High School and saw Beth every day. I never saw her without a smile or pleasant or helpful word.
I only got to meet Billy once, but he was as friendly and cheerful as Beth. I am so sorry for your loss. I pray that God will give you the strength to get through this hard time and take comfort in cherished memories.

Brandon and Bradley,
My deepest sympathy to you both and to your family. I am so sorry that you have to go through this. Your mother was one of the kindest, sweetest women I have ever had the pleasure to work with. As you know, I worked with the Athletic Office while I taught at Mooresville HS, and she coordinated and organized the special events with me.
You would never see your mom without a smile on her face. She was always very encouraging. She was truly a great woman, and will be missed.
You boys were your parents greatest joy. I know you will continue to make them proud. Be strong and trust in your faith.
With love and concern,
Mrs. Maureen Wehmeier

My heartfelt sympathy to Billy and Beth's families. I've worked with Beth through Southmont athletics for two years and enjoyed every moment. It also was a pleasure getting to know Billy. We are all blessed to have them as part of our lives.
While we will hurt with the loss, the Lord promises in one of my favorite Bible verses He will never give us more than we can handle.
"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it." 1 Corinthians 10:13
My best to all their friends and family.

Bradley & Brandon,
I cannot imagine the ache in your hearts at this time. I was devastated to learn of your parents' tragic deaths. Your mother was always so proud of your accomplishments, whether in school, scouts or orchestra. She was such a vibrant person, with her perky hello and her helping hands. She and your father will be truly missed by me and many people in the community. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of grief and in the coming months.
