Bigger than life. We were friends in the days of Queens Liberation Front and Drag Magazine. We had lost touch for many years, and we were able to reconnect 40 years later at her home in the French Quarter, just months before her passing. I will miss my friend and mentor.Sandy Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12851467675603528415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-22871952268413953812019-07-18T23:33:05.127-04:002019-07-18T23:33:05.127-04:00Thank you for sharing so much more of this lovely ...Thank you for sharing so much more of this lovely lady with us. I have known Bebe for over 25 years and she has always been maternal in her nature to me as well as so many. She has advised me on my career in education, employed me in her entrepreneurial times with Tommy, catechized me and setup up a meet with Father Barry at OLMC in Yonkers when I was in doubt and poking around in places I should not have been, and when I became incarcerated and went up top this lady stayed by my side and knowing i would be coming home encouraged me and greeted me when I returned with nothing short of positivity and to continue my fight and live! She has been that Carmelite lady much like St Theresa of Avila that did what needed to be done when St John of the Cross wasn't looking. All true! Strength and love. Let nothing frighten thee or disturb thee. Only God is constant.<br /><br />I will never forget you my sweet heart. I am sure that there are many with love affairs in friendship like ours. You are a staunch lady, a wonderful Carmelite woman and your placement on this world was certainly for a reason. We know it as WISDOM. I know it as love. I will see and be with you again.Demon20livehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15666696592513458225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-56667564289880471912019-07-16T21:11:22.169-04:002019-07-16T21:11:22.169-04:00Bebe you were one of a kind.
