  1. I absolutely loved BeBe, I met her at Sabin's house in L.A at a gathering he was throwing at his homw and I needed a smoke so I wandered carefully not to be noticed to the back yard success...i did it and no one saw me yeahhhh it was beautiful evening I met Bebe in Sabins back yard she was hiding behind some bushes not wanting to be found sneaking a cigarette herself, I went to do the same and didn't see her there I thought OMG this is a great place to hide and escape without being notice to smoke with no one watching, there was a small gap in this very TALL Hedge THAT APPEARED seamless..I jumped in quickly, I had started Bebe and Bebe had started me we both screamed which then quickly turned into laughter as we both saw we had the same things in our hands and got exactly what each one of us was doing and how sneaky we were about it, without words obvious goal for the same reason. we always loved rehashing that story to people and we would laugh like school girls cause it was seriously funny to us, but we both knew we would be friends forever at that moment, bebe grabbed my hand and we started inside , but she stopped in her tracks jerking me and said Hey sit next to me and stopped again at the back door before entering , she said Zaura you go 1st and pointed out where to sit she was avoiding someone who took the seat next to her that wanted her attention for some reason, she smiled and didnt want to talk to them but didnt want that part to seem obvious she said go over there and sit in there chair, hurry hurry yeahhh they just got up to get punch. hurry you take the chair the chair go go go and I will sit in the end chair next to you but we gotta make this look flawless or people will get mad at me. I have more stories but I love the way we met and I will always love bebe she stayed in touch with me thru the years and enjoyed my daughter Rachel when she was just a toddler..I have so many good memories of BeBe... I love you bebe you will never be forgotten and always so loved and cherished deep in my heart rest in peace sweet lady Rozaura Faulkner
