She leaves behind two sons, Roger A. Stoops of Millsboro, and Jack L. Stoops of Bear; her four grandchildren, Roger Stoops Jr., Jessica Lee Wilson, Erica M. Jones and Adam Stoops. Bea had three stepsons, Thomas Cooper of Dagsboro, John Cooper Jr. of Millsboro, and George Cooper and his children.

Bea loved her kids and family above all and enjoyed being down at the beach. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
