Bea was very active in her community. She was a life member of the Felton Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary where she would soon have celebrated 60 years of dedicated service. She was also a member of the Felton United Methodist Church, the Harrington Senior Center and the Democrat Club. In addition, she was a past member of the Avon Club and the Felton Historical Society.
