My condolences to the Gorman Family. I always like to stop in Bedford to see the family on my trips from Washington to Indiana. Mrs. Gorman always welcomed me and my family with open arms. She will be missed dearly. Sorry this is late, but I did not know about her passing until this week. God Bless

The Gorman family is in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Gorman's passing. She and Mr. Gorman were wonderful teachers. I had both of them in my business classes and homeroom at BHS. They were a great example of a truly loving couple! Their life's work left a lasting, valuable impact on my life and many others. In my heart and memory forever!
