Obituary For Mrs. Beulah Mae Brown

Mrs. Beulah Mae Bridges Brown transitioned from earth to glory on July 1, 2024, embraced in the love of her family. She was born April 12, 1931 in Clio, SC to the late Simmie “Son” Bridges and Mary Kate Bridges. She was also preceded in death by; son, John L. Bridges (“Jaybird”), great-grandson, Johnathan Bridges; siblings: Charles, Simmie Jr., John (June) Bridges, Dorothy Cook, Emma Fairley, Aggie Pouncy, Maggie Butler, and son-in-law Henry Parson. She attended Lincoln High School in Clio, SC.

In 1956, Beulah relocated to High Point, NC. At one point, she worked at Carolina Springs, but being a woman of ambition who knew how to set and achieve goals, she earned her CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) certification and began to work at Wesleyan Arms until her retirement. She also worked as a private CNA on occasions.

She was a faithful member of Williams Memorial C.M.E. Church, where she served as a member of the usher board, choir and steward until declining health prevented her engagement.

Beulah, our loving mother, grandmother, and great-grand mother, great-greatgrandmother, stood on Psalms 23. When she needed comfort, she would focus on verse 4, “Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear nor evil: for thy are with me: thy rod and thy staff the comfort me.” She would end in bold assurance with verse 6, “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.” One of her favorite songs was “I Got Jesus”.

Beulah was married to Marine Deville Brown, who preceded her in death in December 2006.

She leaves to cherish with loving and fond memories her daughter, Clara Mae Parson; grandchildren, Damien (Ashley) Bridges, Dominique Parson and Jamila (Thomas) Hunter; seven great-grandchildren and two great great-grandchildren; sister, Ann Hayes; daughter-in-law, Elizabeth Green Bridges; brother-in-law, Earl Butler; goddaughters, Angelica Davis, Minnette Stewart and Minae McCormick; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends; dedicated nephews include, Dexter Pouncy and Jonathan Roach—always ready to lend a hand; long-time special friends include, Mrs. Ernestine Hoke, Mrs. Mary Gillespie and Mrs. Edna White.

Funeral service will be held Saturday, July 6, 2024 at 12:00 p.m. at Williams Memorial C.M. E. Church. Interment will follow at Guilford Memorial Park. The family will receive friends at the church from 11:30 a.m. until 12:00 p.m.

I am going miss you Aunt Beulah. I enjoyed our last visit together. My heart was so touched when you remembered my face and my voice. You said Chaka where is my glasses? Every visit to your home, you would take me in your living room and show me my picture. When I became an adult, you ask me to stop by your home because you had a surprise for me. That surprise was my picture in a gift bag. Aunt Beulah, you advised I may want this picture one day. I was 3 years old standing in the garden in Bennettsville, SC holding this beautiful flower. Which is my favorite flower now, but on today as I reflect, I'm thinking of you smiling holding that picture. Thank you for all your love.
I love you❤️ Your niece Chaka,

I have many great memories of her, Uncle Brown, aunt Dot, aunt Maggie, aunt Duck, aunt Aggie, Uncle June., grand ma and grand pa. They are all together now watching us from heaven and saying the darnest things that would make us laugh.

Hey Aunt Beulah Maria and I were glad to see you on father Day I made a bet with Bedi that you would recognize my voice Bedi won that bet. But when I called my mother, your sister, you recognize her voice and you had that wonderful smile on your face that is a memory we will away cherish 🙏🏿. We love you so much.
