Gelee was a wonderful young lady I had the opportunity to run track with her and her husband at Southwestern Christian College in Terrell,TX. She was a very happy person all the time the most thing i remember about her was her HUGE smile. She will be greatly missed R.I.P my friend.

My prayers to her and for her family and all that was involved in this terrible accident. I am the mother of his son Austin Farmer. Even tho me and Brad had not been together for over 10 years he would never hurt anyone. My heart aches for her children as well as my son. As the 23rd was our son's 18th Birthday and prom is this coming week. He will be graduating on May 14th. I am sure he is missing his phone calls every night. Prayers to her twins I am so sorry.

I remember her being so very small, born with her brother. Heaven has truly received an angel. To the family I am so very sorry, and my heart cries out for you all. I know though there are no words that can bring you comfort, but I know that God has you all in HIS grasp. May God continue to keep you all strong and help through your pain of loss to remember all the good times about Angelica. Her memory lives on, and we will not forget her.

Let not your heart be sadden for Angelica, as God has given her wings to soar in heaven as she did on earth. Keep her sweet, kind, and loving spirit in your heart
and know she is with you. God chooses who is at will and ready for eternity in this life and it is well. Angelica was a perfect angel seen by all and everyone through her smile and kind heart. Blessed are you in for God sharing his angel, for He is with you and will give you all you need to endure. Trust He will and can do.

My sympathies to family, friends and students of Angelica Beard: At times like these, 'God can give "power beyond what is normal," so you can keep going from one day to the next (2 Corinthians 4:7, Jeremiah 29:12, 13). Until you see Angelica again, (John 5:28, 29, Acts 24:15) allow Almighty God to be your refuge and your strength as you face each day without her. (Psalm 46:1; Jeremiah 31:13) May mercy and peace and love be increased to you

My heart has been heavy all day, since I heard this wonderful, joyful, funny, full of life, greatest Mom as she named herself has left us. My head hurts, my eyes won't stop tearing every time I think of the senseless loss of life, the youth, that smile and humor you so generously shared, your life partner, husband, twins 10 year old sons who so need their mother. I can only pray for your soul, your family; your mother, brother, sister, sons, Selena, your bestie for life. We haven't spoken in a while, but I remember your smile and will to win in this photo like it was yesterday. SIP Angelica, I'm so sorry your journey was cut so short, but I know you have your wings already and will be watching over those of us left behind. In loving memory Phyllis Graham Anderson
