Brian - Caring

Brain is a man of God who will give up and let others do or think things their way. He avoids confrontation in a way that brings admiration from all sides. Even though he is a leader, he is willing to step down if it helps others (for those of us that don't submit as well ;P). He is amazing with kids and always lends a hand, ear, leg or some other random body part to any need.

Get well soon Brian, we are praying for you :)

Beth - Something More than an Extrovert

How can I describe it? Extrovert really doesn't suffice. Beth is a "people-person," but even that isn't enough. She has such an amazing capacity for making friends, loving them and caring so deeply that I am humbled to be one. Beth has a love for people that is both literally and metaphorically unfathomable. It goes on forever and I can't understand how she does it. But all I really need to know, and admire, is that her selfless love understands the pain of others and is a soothing balm capable of healing.

Beth - Creative

Beth has a zeal for creating beautiful works of art. Be they the actual literal "art" or simply an effort displayed aesthetically she never stops beautifying the world around her. Beth won't stop with tangible articles; she proceeds on to her friends' characters and beautifies them. Her influence has been a refreshing breeze that has calmed the storm of so many troubled characters. Her creativity is constantly seen in her love and dedication to her friends.

Beth - A Leader

Taking command can be hard, especially when facing opposition. But Beth has never let any qualms about facing conflict defeat her natural ability to lead. She has sacrificed her time in order to improve the lives of many people; even in the most minute of ways. I can only begin to appreciate how much of her life she has given to organize, lead and run many different gatherings. Her love and servitude have gone far in helping her to lead effectively; something I know she will only ever improve on.

Beth - Loyal

Fiercely loyal would best describe Beth. To her friends, to her family, to her morals, to her God, Beth's loyalty sometimes boarders on fanatical. Her passionate defense of what is dear to her has left me with a tender admiration for her many times. She is not afraid to believe what is right and better yet: she is not afraid to speak her convictions. I am truly honored to have even a small portion of this loyalty given to me.

Beth - A Servant

Where the need is so there also is Beth. I can't think of one time when I've seen Beth walk away from someone who needed her. Whether physically, emotionally or spiritually Beth has always been there to help. Not only has she been there, but her help has been invaluable. She loves with such a passion that she is willing to set herself aside to aid other people in whatever way she can. Thus she shows true love for all that are so privileged to know her.

Beth - Determined

One of the many amazing things about Beth is that she'll never give up, no matter what the odds. Even if she's overwhelmed and gloomy she keeps going and succeeds. Not only does she succeed, but she does it well and with her head held high. Her determination is evident throughout her life and causes people to look to her for guidance and motivation. She embodies that oh so stereotyped phrase "when the going gets tough, the tough get going."

Beth - Spunky

spunk•y
–adjective

plucky; spirited.

Also:
spunky
adjective

1. showing courage; "the champion is faced with a feisty challenger" [syn: feisty] 2. willing to face danger [syn: game]

Beth is an amazing young lady. She’s not afraid to be different or say what she thinks. (Even if it might not go with the norm.) And we all love her for it. When I think of Beth, I think of plenty of words, but spunky sticks out. I looked it up on dictionary.com and got a couple different meanings, but they all fit Beth.
