She was my 6th grade teacher. She and I still kept in touch. She even attended my 25th wedding anniversary party. I loved her so much. Im glad I was able to talk with her around the Holidays. Im sad that I was not aware she passed away. Thank you for the everything you taught me in life and in school. OMG my heart truly hurts right now!

Your mother was a beautiful person inside and out.  I remember when I was a little girl.  My grandmother was good friends with your grandmother and I would set on the porch with them.  Your mother would come home and I always wished I would grow up and be as beautiful as she was.  I am praying for peace and comfort for your family.  April Carter Dawson, Columbus, OH

So sorry for your loss. She will missed. I volunteered in her room at Fair. Also was her computer helper.

Mrs. Barbara Beckwith-Burgess, you were a very special lady. I first met you about 25 years ago, new to the city and as a new member of the Columbus Black Women's Health Project.  You embraced me and I embraced you back.  You became my friend, a mentor and a mother figure for me.  After years of calling you Mrs. Beckwith, I one day asked if I could call you "Momma B".  I know that I am only one of all the many that you were mother to.  Just like any mother, you were there when I needed you offering an encouraging word and advocating for my recovery.  You adopted me, my daughter and granddaughter.  You became our family and we became yours.  There was never a visit or a conversation that didn't end with you saying "You know I love you."  I love and miss you, Momma B.  I thank God for bringing you into my life.

May you find comfort and strength in the arms of the Lord, Rest In Peace Ms Barbra. And my deepest condolences to You Ural and the rest of all who loved.

Mrs. Beckwith,  
You were my teacher at St. Augustine so many years ago.  You were my first African American teacher.  You got us young ladies all the way together and for that I'm thankful.  When I began doing community work our paths crossed again and you remembered me.  We had a great conversation and you again encouraged me and provided me words of wisdom.  To a wonderful woman rest well you have fought many battles and in my eyes you won.  
With much Respect, 
 Tiffany White

Dear Ural,

My heart goes out to you and your family. Deepest condolences from my family.  

Your mother was so dear to me and she will always be in my heart.  Sometimes we knew each other's thoughts and we felt each other's pain.  We inspired each other.   Before saying good night, your mother would always say something that would make us both laugh. Then she would say, "You know I love you, Little Sister. You're my only sister in the whole wide world."

The card that I was going to send to your mother for Valentine's Day reads:  "We're not sisters by birth.  But we knew from the start, God put us together to be sisters at heart."  -Author: Audrey Jesnne Roberts

Ural, I am at peace  knowing that my Big Sister is at peace.

May God comfort you and your family.

Love,
Aunt Bettye Neal and Family

Barbara Beckwith-Burgess was first Mrs. Broxton- my 6th grade teacher- to me. She taught both me, and my younger brother Cameron. But she became a dear friend of my mother Cassandra, and when my mom was battling breast cancer, she was her cancer mentor and support, spending time with my mom on some of her last days, tireless and loving. As my teacher, Aunty B (as she became to me in later years) was an unstoppable force, dedicated to assuring that all her students did their very best. She is the reason I became an educator. She made me feel like I was so special, so smart. Even in our last conversations she was encouraging me, as she always did. When my mom died in 2012 she made it very clear that as my Aunty B she would always be there for me. And she was. She embraced my children and my husband as well as me, making sure we were always okay. After my husband and I moved to Georgia, every time we returned to Columbus she insisted that we stay with her and Uncle Don, and no matter how my husband and I fussed, she had to cook dinner for us while we were there! She always reminded me to take care of myself and let me know how much she loved me. To say that we will miss her is such an understatement! My only solace is in knowing that I know where she is…because that is where ANGELS go!
Aunty B, tell my Mom and Uncle Donald I said hi! I’ll see you in the morning!

My condolences are with the family. Barbara was a dear friend of mine. She will truly be missed. Barbara had a good heart and kind spirit and was always willing to help others. Rest in Heavenly Peace my friend.
